Abstract: Systems and methods for manufacturing unidirectional fiber prepreg tapes for CMC articles are provided. In one exemplary aspect, the method includes casting a matrix material on a carrier film to form a matrix film. The matrix material of the matrix film is then allowed to dry for a predetermined time. The matrix film is then wrapped on a drum and the matrix material is wet to a predetermined viscosity with a solvent. Thereafter, a fiber tow that includes of a plurality of fibers is wound about the drum so that the fiber tow penetrates into the matrix material and the matrix material impregnates the fiber tow to form the prepreg tape.

The first component formed of a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) including reinforcing fibers embedded in a matrix and the second CMC subcomponent formed of one of a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) including reinforcing fibers embedded in a matrix or a monolithic ceramic material. The subcomponents further including an interlocking mechanical joint joining the first subcomponent and the second subcomponent to form the composite material component. The interlocking mechanical joint including at least one groove defined in one of the first subcomponent or the second subcomponent and into which a portion of the other of the first subcomponent or the second subcomponent is disposed. A shroud segment is provided formed of the joined first and second subcomponents. Methods are also provided for joining the first and second subcomponents using an interlocking mechanical joint.

Abstract: A method for repair of composite materials includes applying a formulation to a ceramic matrix composite substrate. The formulation comprises a liquid carrier, a ceramic filler dispersed within the carrier, and a polymeric binder disposed in the carrier. The method further includes removing the carrier from the formulation to form a green composition; pyrolyzing the green composition to form a porous composition; disposing a liquid metal or metalloid within the pores of the porous composition to form an intermediate composite composition; and converting the liquid metal or metalloid to solid state to form a solid composite composition.

Abstract: A composite component for a gas turbine engine is provided, along with its methods of formation. The composite component includes: an additively printed inner portion defining at least one flowpath feature, and a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) outer portion formed on the additively printed inner portion such that the CMC outer portion substantially surrounds the additively printed inner portion. The additively printed inner portion includes SiC; and the CMC outer portion includes a fiber reinforced ceramic matrix (e.g., including SiC) and defines at least one cooling cavity fluidly coupled to the at least one flowpath feature of the additively printed inner portion.

Abstract: Composite components and methods for adding a composite material to a composite component are provided. For example, a method comprises positioning a composite material segment against the composite component to form a component layup; applying an insulating material around at least a portion of the component layup to form an insulated layup; and densifying the insulated layup, where the composite component was previously densified before positioning the composite material segment against the composite component. In some embodiments, the composite material is ceramic matrix composite (CMC) and the composite material segment is a plurality of CMC plies. The composite component may be a CMC gas turbine engine component that comprises an original CMC component and a new CMC material segment joined to the original CMC component through the transfer of silicon between the original CMC component and the new CMC material segment during melt infiltration.
