Oxide Oxide Ceramic Matrix Composite

High temperature mechanical behavior and properties of three oxide oxide composites of alumina and mullite are discussed.
Oxide oxide ceramic matrix composite. The first presented by 3m axiom and chi to the american ceramic society meeting on june 2015 in toronto on canada was titled oxide oxide ceramic matrix composites enabling widespread industry adoption. Tensile strength and stiffness of all materials decreased at 1000 c and 1200 c probably because of degradation of fiber properties beyond 1000 c. The results of these investigations were reported in two papers. Oxide oxide ceramic matrix composites cmcs are among leading candidate materials for use in high temperature structural applications especially in components requiring a long service life in oxidizing environments.
Ceramic matrix composites cmcs are a subgroup of composite materials as well as a subgroup of ceramics they consist of ceramic fibers embedded in a ceramic matrix. Both the matrix and the fibers can consist of any ceramic material whereby carbon and carbon fibers can also be considered a ceramic material. Ox ox cmcs have significant application momentum as high temperature oxidation sensitive components particularly in the aerospace industry. This route allows for the production of composites with very.
Axiom materials is the world s largest producer of oxide oxide ceramic matrix composite pre preg materials. Oxide oxide ceramic matrix composites are gaining increasing attention as a mainstream material option for high temperature components in the aerospace and advanced energy sectors. World leader in ceramic matrix composites. This cmc is called gen iv and it has a porous and.
Mechanical performance of three oxide oxide ceramic matrix composites cmcs based on nextel 610 fibers and sioc alumina and mullite sioc matrices respectively is evaluated herein. All oxide ceramic matrix composites produced by a novel route based on the lamination of thermoplastic prepregs are investigated. An oxide oxide ceramic fiber matrix composite cmc has been extensively characterized for high temperature aerospace structural applications.
