Abstract Scope |
SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites present an attractive option for cutting edge aerospace technology, but maximum operating conditions are plagued by existence of relatively low melting point of residual silicon. Residual silicon remaining in the microstructure of reactive melt infiltrated composites is a problem that hinders full potential of the technology. Eliminitation of residual Si is going to be analyzed by a comprehensive understanding of the evolution of microstructure through a phase field model which can be approximated as interface between a molten Si and solid graphite. |
