摘要:
The present invention relates to the formation of a metal matrix composite body by a spontaneous infiltration technique. Particularly, an infiltration enhancer and/or infiltration enhancer precursor can be positioned at least partially between or at an interface between a matrix metal and a filler material (or preform) which is to be infiltrated by molten matrix metal. Moreover, at least at some point during the process, an infiltrating atmosphere may be in communication with the filler material or preform and/or matrix metal.

The present invention relates to the formation of a metal matrix composite body by the spontaneous infiltration of a molten matrix metal into a three-dimensionally interconnected material. Moreover, the three-dimensionally interconnected material may contain filler material within at least a portion of its porosity. Particularly, an infiltration enhancer and/or an infiltration enhancer precursor and/or an infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with a filler material and/or a three-dimensionally interconnected material and/or a matrix metal at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the three-dimensionally interconnected material and any filler material contained within at least a portion of the porosity of the three-dimensionally interconnected material.

The present invention relates to the formation of a macrocomposite body by spontaneously infiltrating a permeable mass of filler material or a preform with molten matrix metal and bonding the spontaneously infiltrated material to at least one second material such as a ceramic or ceramic containing body and/or a metal or metal containing body. Particularly, an infiltration enhancer and/or infiltration enhancer precursor and/or infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with a filler material or a preform, at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the filler material or preform. Moreover, prior to infiltration, the filler material or preform is placed into contact with at least a portion of a second material such that after infiltration of the filler material or preform, the infiltrated material is bonded to the second material, thereby forming a sealable electronic package.
摘要:
A complex oxidation reaction product of two or more metals in an oxidized state is formed by positioning a suitable precursor metal adjacent to a permeable mass of a metal-containing compound in an oxidizing atmosphere and heating the assembly to form a body of molten precursor metal. The molten metal infiltrates the permeable mass and reacts therewith and with the oxidizing atmosphere to form a complex oxidation reaction product. Methods for determining the shape of the resulting article are described. The disclosed methods can be used to form superconducting perovskites.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel method for forming metal matrix composite bodies and novel products produced by the method. Particularly, a permeable mass of filler material or a preform has included therein at least some matrix metal powder. Moreover, an infiltration enhancer and/or an infiltration enhancer precursor and/or an infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with the filler material or a preform, at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the filler material or preform. The presence of powdered matrix metal in the preform or filler material reduces the relative volume fraction of filler material to matrix metal.

摘要:
This invention relates to a method for producing a self-supporting ceramic structure comprising an oxidation reaction product of a parent metal and a vapor-phase oxidant characterized by an altered microstructure attributable to the addition of one or more process modifiers relative to substantially the same oxidation reaction product produced without a process modifier.
