摘要:
A method of forming a plurality of porous ceramic particles may include forming the plurality of porous ceramic particles using a spray tluidization forming process conducted in a batch mode. The batch mode may include at least two batch spray fluidization forming cycles. The plurality of porous ceramic particles formed by the spray fluidization forming process may include an average porosity of at least about 0.01 cc/g and not greater than about 1.6 cc/g. The plurality of porous ceramic particles formed by the spray tluidization forming- process may farther include an average particle size of at least about 200 microns and not greater than about 2000 microns. Each ceramic particle of the plurality of porous ceramic particles may include a cross-sectional structure including a core region and a layered region overlying the core region.
摘要:
A method of forming at least partially crystalline ceramic powder includes providing mixed metal oxide particles in an aqueous suspension in a hydrothermal treatment vessel, heating the aqueous suspension at a temperature of at least 150° C. at a treatment pressure of at least 200 psi, and adding an aqueous solution having a temperature of not greater than 100° C. to the hydrothermal treatment vessel while heating and while releasing steam from the hydrothermal treatment vessel.
摘要:
Ceramic matrix composite articles (10) include, for example, a plurality of unidirectional arrays of fiber tows (20) in a matrix having a monomodal pore size distribution, and a fiber volume fraction between 15 percent and 35 percent. The articles may be formed by a method (100), for example, by providing (110) a shaped preform comprising a prepreg tape layup of unidirectional arrays of fiber tows (20), a matrix precursor, and a pore former, curing (120) the shaped preform to pyrolyze the matrix precursor and burnout the pore former so that the shaped preform comprises the unidirectional arrays of fiber tows (20) and a porous matrix having a monomodal pore size distribution, and subjecting (130) the cured shaped preform to chemical vapor infiltration to densify the porous matrix so that the ceramic matrix composite article (10) has a fiber volume fraction between 15 percent and 35 percent.
