Abstract

Silicon carbide matrix composite material () comprises silicon carbide matrix () as a host The silicon carbide matrix () comprises first silicon carbide phase () of 0.1 to 10 μm average crystal grain diameter and second silicon carbide phase () of 0.01 to 2 μm average crystal grain diameter. In interstices of silicon carbide crystal grains constituting the silicon carbide matrix (), liberated silicon phase () amounting to, for example, 5 to 50 mass % based on the composite material () is present continuously in network form. This fine structure enables realizing high strength and high toughness of the silicon carbide composite material ().
