Highly densified bulk silicon oxycarbide—carbon composites (SiOC-C) reinforced with carbon black (CB), active carbon (AC) or graphite (GR) have been obtained through spark plasma sintering. Structural, mechanical, tribological and thermal properties of SiOC-C composites were researched. The SiOC-C composites reinforced with GR and CB tended to give β-SiC. Wear behavior at room temperature under dry conditions was determined by using a ball on plate configuration and stainless steel balls as counter bodies. The coefficient of friction of the composites decreases down to 40% and the wear rate is also reduced by 1 in the order of magnitude when compared to SiOC. A graphite-like carbon tribolayer is probably formed in the composites; this layer could be responsible for the observed enhancement of such tribological properties. These SiOC-C composites are promising candidates for use in harsh enviroments where an adequate tribological response is required at high temperatures.
