Spark Plasma Sintering is used for the fabrication of highly dense HfB2 monolithic and HfB2–26 vol.% SiCw composite. Reactive SPS from elemental reactants is preferred for the preparation of bulk HfB2 instead of classical sintering. The desired phase is rapidly formed through a solid–solid combustion synthesis mechanism, while full densification is achieved in 30 min at 1350 A when the applied pressure is switched from 20 to 50 MPa after the synthesis reaction. A 99.4% dense whiskers-reinforced HfB2 ceramic matrix composite is also obtained in 30 min by SPS (I = 1350 A, P = 20 MPa) using SHSed HfB2 powders and SiCw. Nevertheless, whiskers degradation into SiCp resulted under such conditions (temperature up to 1830 °C). On the other hand, the presence of whiskers is clearly evidenced in 96% dense products obtained when the applied current was decreased down to 1200 A (1700 °C) while P was increased to 60 MPa.
