Abstract
Mullite-based composites reinforced with silver particles were obtained by powder techniques. Composites were sintered after an intense mixing of the precursor powders. It was found that additions of silver have a strong effect on the mechanical properties, since fracture toughness was increased up to 350%. The microstructure of composites presents grains with flakes morphology.
