Abstract: Laminated ZrB2-SiC/G graphite (ZrB2-SiC/G) ceramics were fabricated by tap-casting, stacking and hot-pressing sintering. The effect of directivity of weak graphite layer on the laminated ZrB2-SiC/G ceramics was investigated. The phase composition and morphology of the laminated ZrB2-SiC/G ceramics was analyzed and observed by XRD and SEM, respectively. The results show that the flexural strength in the parallel direction of the laminated ZrB2-SiC/G ceramics is (382±25) MPa, which is slightly lower than that of (429±30) MPa in the perpendicular direction. The fracture toughness in the parallel direction is (11.2±0.3) MPa·m1/2, which increases by 75% compared with that in the perpendicular direction. The increase of fracture toughness of the laminated ZrB2-SiC/G ceramics in the parallel direction is mainly attributed to the crack deflection, branching and delamination caused by graphite layer.
