The 27B$_4$C–25.5TaB$_2$–47.5SiC (% mol.) composite is prepared by a floating zone method based on crucibleless zone melting of compacted powders. The influence of crystallization rate on the structure and properties of the composite is studied. Vickers hardness, fracture toughness, and flexural strength of the composite are 32–35 GPa, 4.3–5.2 MPa$\cdot$m$^{1/2}$, and 223–252 MPa, correspondingly.
Key words: ternary eutectic, hardness, fracture toughness, flexural strength, boron carbide, silicon carbide, tantalum diboride.
