Abstract

Continuous fiber ceramic composites are enabling new, high temperature structural applications. Chemical vapor infiltration methods for producing these composites are being investigated, with the complexity of filament weaves and deposition chemistry merged with standard heat and mass transport relationships. Silicon carbide-based materials are, by far, the most mature, and are already being used in aerospace applications. This paper addresses the state-of-the art of the technology and outlines current issues.
