Abstract

In-situ composite fibers produced by directional solidification of two phase oxide eutectics are one means of producing fibers with good strength and higher creep resistance than single crystal fibers. In this work, directionally solidified alumina-yttria stabilized zirconia eutectic fibers have been grown by the laser heated float zone (LHFZ) method at NASA Lewis. The average tensile strength of the alumina-zirconia (60.8 m/o Al2O3; 39.2 m/o ZrO2 (9.5 m/o Y2O3)) eutectic fibers was 1.2 GPa at room temperature. The high temperature tensile strength and creep resistance of the eutectic fiber were determined and compared to single crystal Al2O3.
