Abstract

Micro-computed tomography (micro-CT or μCT) is a standard tool for materials science research. This method allows high-resolution non-destructive analysis of the internal structure of an object. In this work, the internal structure of B₄C-C composites has been examined using µCT for quantitative and qualitative evaluation. Boron carbide is a promising material for X-ray refractive lenses due to its properties - quite high refractive ability with high transmission of x-ray radiation. Experimental samples were fabricated by the spark plasma sintering method. It has been shown that μCT can be used to determine the parameters of the internal structure of B₄C-C composite for further optimization of x-ray refractive optics manufacturing.
