Mechanical behavior of MoSi{sub 2} and MoSi{sub 2} composites

Conference ·
OSTI ID:10157004
MoSi{sub 2} is a key member of the new class high temperature structural silicide materials. Important features of the mechanical behavior of MoSi{sub 2} and MoSi{sub 2} composites are reviewed. The mechanical properties of MoSi{sub 2} single crystals, polycrystalline MoSi{sub 2}, and MoSi{sub 2}-based composites are discussed in association with properties such as elevated temperature deformation and low temperature fracture toughness. Interrelationships between single crystal, polycrystal, and composite mechanical behavior are identified.
