摘要:
In fiber composite ceramic containing reaction sintered SiC as a matrix and having BN-coated SiC continuous fibers as composite fibers, the thickness of the BN coating need not be especially made large, and a sliding effect during growing of cracks can be improved, i.e., breakdown energy can be increased. A method of manufacturing fiber composite ceramic in which large number of BN-coated SiC fibers covered with a BN coating are gathered to form yarns, or yarns are woven to form a two-dimensional or three-dimensional fabric, and a preform is formed by the yarns or the fabric, C powder is arranged in a gap portion between fibers of the preform to form a compact, a molten Si is impregnated into the compact to form an SiC matrix between fibers. A region having a high B concentration is formed around the SiC fibers before the preform is impregnated with the molten Si, and B in the region is solid-solved in Si during reaction sintering to suppress B in the BN-coated SiC fibers from being solid-solved in Si.

The ceramic matrix composite is constructed by a ceramic matrix containing SiC formed by a reaction sintering as a main phase and ceramic fibers comprising SiC compounded in this matrix. A coat layer that has been previously coated on the fibers is disposed between the fiber and the matrix. The layer is provided with a BN layer with a preset thickness covering on the surface of the fiber, a C layer with a preset thickness covering the BN layer, and a SiC layer with a preset thickness covering the C layer.

A fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composite is disclosed which comprises a ceramic matrix and a fiber preform integrally assembled therein, the fiber preform comprising a braided fabric derivable from braiding a yarn which is composed of a plurality of fiber bundles formed of a plurality of monofilaments bundled together, the braided fabric being present in a volume fraction of fiber (Vf) of 10 to 40% by volume based on the total volume of the ceramic matrix composite. The yarns (fiber bundles) may preferably be disposed in oblique relation to each other. Initial matrix cracking strength, crack propagation resistance and fracture energy are greatly increased. Fiber preforms having a complicated shape can be easily obtained.

A ceramic matrix composite material comprising a matrix containing silicon carbide as the primary component and silicon nitride as the secondary component is disclosed. The silicon nitride includes not more than 1% by weight of iron and reinforcements mixed and dispersed. The ceramic matrix composite material is manufactured, for example, by forming a matrix containing reaction sintered silicon carbide as the primary component and nitriding the free metal silicon produced in the sintering process so that the free metal silicon will be converted to fine silicon nitride particles. Said metal silicon used for reaction sintering already contains iron. These processes enable the containing of a comparatively large amount of reinforcements, as well as the improvement of heat resistance of the sintered compact and the suppression of the deterioration of reinforcements.
