Microstructure influence on the fragmentation properties of dense silicon carbides under impact

•Four SiC grades are subjected to edge-on impact and normal impact tests.•The fragmentation process is visualised using ultra-high speed imaging.•Crack patterns are analyzed by means of post-mortem observations.•A strong influence from the ceramic's microstructure on the fragment size distribut...
