Theses and Dissertations

Thermal stability of three oxide-oxide ceramic matrix composites was studied. The materials studied were NextelTM610/aluminosilicate (N610/AS), NextelTM720/aluminosilicate (N720/AS), and NextelTM720/Alumina (N720/A), commercially available oxide-oxide ceramic composites (COI Ceramics, San Diego, CA). The N610/AS composite consists of a porous aluminosilicate matrix reinforced with laminated woven alumina N610 fibers. The N720/AS and N720/A composites consist of a porous oxide matrix reinforced with laminated, woven mullite/alumina (NextelTM720) fibers. The matrix materials are aluminosilicate in N720/AS and alumina in N720/A. All three composites have no interface between the fibers and matrix, and rely on the porous …
