TiC-Ti3SiC2 gradient hybrid interphase on the surface of SiC fibers was successfully obtained through the molten salt method. The electromagnetic parameters of the prepared samples can be accurately controlled by adjusting the reaction temperature. A significant bimodal effect is observed in electromagnetic parameters patterns, corresponding to the double interface layer. TiC-Ti3SiC2 gradient hybrid interphase plays a dominant role in impedance matching, as well as in the attenuation layer through multi-interfacial polarization and conduction loss. Through the co-evaluation of the suppression of specular reflection and non-specular scattering properties of the samples, the SiC fiber with the TiC-Ti3SiC2 gradient hybrid interphase is expected to be a high temperature resistant radar absorbing material for future stealth aircraft.
