摘要:
The present invention relates to the formation of a macrocomposite body for use as an electronic package or container. The macrocomposite body is formed 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 or a metal or metal containing body. 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 by molten matrix metal, the infiltrated material is bonded to said second material, thereby forming a macrocomposite body. The macrocomposite body may then be coated by techniques according to the present invention to enhance its performance or bonding capabilities.

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.

There is disclosed a method for producing a self-supporting ceramic body by oxidation of a molten precursor metal with a vapor-phase oxidant to form an oxidation reaction product and inducing a molten flux comprising said molten precursor metal through said oxidation reaction product. A second metal is incorporated into said molten flux during the oxidation reaction. The resulting ceramic body includes sufficient second metal such that one or more properties of said ceramic body are at least partially affected by the presence and properties of said second metal in the metallic constituent.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel process for making a macrocomposite body. Specifically, a metal matrix composite body is first formed and thereafter, a ceramic body or a ceramic matrix composite body is caused to form from at least one surface of the already formed metal matrix composite body. The ceramic or ceramic composite body can be formed by, for example, changing from spontaneous infiltration conditions which permit a molten matrix metal to infiltrate a filler material or preform to conditions which favor the growth of a ceramic oxidation reaction product from the matrix metal (e.g., the matrix metal serves the dual role of a matrix metal and a parent metal for growth of oxidation reaction product). The growth of oxidation reaction product can occur from one or more surfaces of a metal matrix composite body and can be controlled to result in any desired shape. Moreover, the oxidation reaction product can be caused to grow directly into an atmosphere to form a ceramic body or can be caused to grow into an adjacently located filler material to form a ceramic matrix composite body. The oxidation reaction product can be formed substantially immediately after the metal matrix composite body is formed or may be formed at any point later in time.
