SiC whisker reinforced Al2O3-SiC composite was fabricated by reaction synthesis method whish is cost ef-fective and allows good dispersion of whiskers. Fracture strength at room temperature showed the highest value with 150$0^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature because a lot of SiC whiskers was formed. Fracture strength at 135$0^{\circ}C$ did not show big differences with reaction temperature due to agglomeration of whiskers and formation of sil-icon oxynitride during hot MO(modulus of rupture) test probably promoting grain boundary sliding.
