Carbon Fiber Reinforced CMC for High‐Performance Structures
TLDR
An overview of the design, manufacture, properties, and applications of C/C-SiC ceramics, produced with the liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) process, is given in this article.Abstract:
The demands in space technology originally played the decisive role in the development of carbon fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composites (CMC). Within the last few years, the properties and the manufacturing methods were consistently improved, so that now the industry in general can share in the profits of this new class of composite materials. The liquid silicon infiltration (LSI) process is regarded as one of the most promising processes for industrial products, especially if the aspect of cost is considered. An overview of the design, manufacture, properties, and applications of C/C-SiC ceramics, produced with the LSI process, is given in this paper.read more

Tailor-made ceramic-based components : Advantages by reactive processing and advanced shaping techniques
TL;DR: In this paper, two routes are considered for fast and cost-effective manufacturing of reliable components: reactive-based processing exhibiting often low shrinkage and/or advanced shapability, and recently developed advanced shaping techniques suitable for CAD/CAM without labor intense tooling optimization.

Preparation of carbon fiber-reinforced zirconium carbide matrix composites by reactive melt infiltration at relative low temperature
TL;DR: In this paper, an attractive way to prepare carbon fiber-reinforced ZrC matrix composites was proposed and confirmed experimentally, and the resulting composites were fabricated by immersing carbon/carbon preforms in molten Zr 2 Cu at 1200°C for 3h.

Cost Effective Processing of CMC Composites by Melt Infiltration (LSI-Process)
TL;DR: In this article, a cost efficient manufacturing route has been developed by DLR based on the infiltration of a reactive fluid phase into porous carbon fiber preforms, where Molten silicon is used as the reactive fluid which replaces the initial pore volume of the preform and reacts subsequently with the carbon matrix to form silicon carbide.
