The motivation to develop CMCs was to overcome the problems associated with the conventional technical c… 展开

The manufacturing processes usually consist of the following three steps:
1. Lay-up and fixation of the fibers, shaped like the desired component
2. Infiltration of the matrix material… 展开

The high fracture toughness or crack resistance mentioned above is a result of the following mechanism: under load the ceramic matrix cracks, like any ceramic material, at an elongation of about 0.05%. In CMCs the em… 展开

CMC materials overcome the major disadvantages of conventional technical ceramics, namely brittle failure and low fracture toughness, and limited thermal shock resistance. Therefore, their applications are i… 展开
