Abstract
The theoretical aspect of the directional solidification :is briefly
described. Two different experimental techniques were used for
the production of directionally solidified high refractory oxide and
carbide eutectics. Microstructure, crystallography, mechanical properties
and mechanism of failure were investigated. Some of the
inves·tLgated eutectics retain considerable strength at elevated temperature,
whereas the majority of alloys and sintered oxide bodies
show rapid loss in strength. Eutectic in the system B4C-SiC shows
excepti.onally high wear r~sisfance.
