Ceramic Fiber Coatings Development and Demonstration
Abstract
The objective of this program was to develop fiber coating techniques by gas phase and liquid phase processes for interface control in ceramic matrix and metal matrix composites. Thermochemical evaluations of fiber/coating/matrix systems were performed theoretically and experimentally. Liquid phase processes were developed mainly for oxide coatings. Gas phase processes were developed for-carbide, nitride and boride coatings. Coatings were produced on continuous fiber tows and woven fabric. A small scale continuous fabric coater was designed and constructed. Coated fiber tows were infiltrated with silicon nitride matrix by chemical vapor deposition in order to study fiber matrix interactions. Composite coupons were made from Nicalon cloth and infiltrated with silicon nitride. Samples coated with high temperature BN showed flexural strengths up to 350 MPa....
