Fabrication of fiber-reinforced ceramic composites by chemical vapor infiltration

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6213764
Ceramic fiber-ceramic matrix composites are of interest because of their potentially higher strength and toughness. A vacuum forming technique was used to fabricate low-density structures from SiC fibers. These fibrous structures were then infiltrated by chemical vapor deposition. Matrices of Si/sub 3/N/sub 4/ and SiC have been deposited.
