New Generation Hybrid Carbon/Ceramic Nanocomposites

Abstract

Agiltron proposes a novel category of next generation CMC material comprising nano-size ceramic and carbon nanotube phases. In Phase I of this program, Agiltron successfully demonstrated the feasibility of the proposed approach through small-scale fabrication and characterization. ln Phase II, Agiltron wilI optimize and scale up the fabrication process of the proposed nano-composite to achieve unprecedented performance. The proposed composite is intended to replace current ceramic and CMC materials to meet the next level military and commercial requirements for cost-effective mechanical component applications.
