Majchrzak %J Archives of Foundry Engineering %D 2013 %I De Gruyter Open %X Cast magnesium matrix composites reinforced with silicon carbide particles were investigated by using Raman microscopy. 3C, 4H and6H polytypes of SiC particles were identified in the investigated composites. Additionally, Mg2Si compound was detected by Ramanmicroscopy in the composites microstructure. %K Magnesium matrix composites %K SiC %K Mg2Si %K Raman spectroscopy %U http://www.afe.polsl.pl/index.php/pl/3680/microstructural-characterization-of-cast-magnesium-matrix-composites-by-raman-microscopy.pdf
