Properties of CVD SiC, CVI SiC/SiC, and NITE — SiC/SiC have been reported and discussed. The CVI SiC/SiC composite combines the advantageous properties of CVD SiC and the benefits of reinforcement by SiC-based continuous fibers. In particular, CVI SiC/SiC exhibits damage tolerance, limited sensitivity to flaws and notch, high load-carrying capacity, and improved reliability. As opposed to earlier generations of SiC/SiC that were reinforced with Nicalon fibers, the database for SiC/SiC reinforced with the advanced near-stoichiometric fibers is incomplete. The properties of Nicalon-reinforced SiC/SiC should provide a useful baseline. The main features of the mechanical behavior of SiC/SiC composites have been described, and the relationships between the microstructure and properties have been discussed. They have been established on CVI SiC/SiC composites reinforced with Nicalon fibers. They should be reproduced on those CVI SiC/ SiC composites reinforced with near-stoichiometric Hi-Nicalon S fibers. The inherent surface roughness of Tyranno-SA3 fibers is an issue.
Precise knowledge of the mechanisms that govern the mechanical behavior is useful for proper use or design with SiC/SiC. Damage and ultimate fracture of CVI SiC/SiC involve load transfer from matrix to fibers at various length scales defined by the 2D woven structure and the tow microstructure. At high temperatures, additional load transfers are driven by the local stress relaxation induced by temperature and/or environment. The ultimate fracture and delayed failure are dictated by the tows. Scale effects and scatter in strength data are limited when compared to monolithic ceramics. Fiber-matrix interfaces and interphases play a significant role in damage tolerance and loadcarrying capacity. Interfaces resistant to crack extension are beneficial to composite performances. However, this scheme is invalid when the fiber surface is rough.
Properties of CVI SiC/SiC can be tailored via engineering of the interfaces and the use of advanced fibers.
