The characterization of monolithic SiC and SiCf/SiC composite materials fabricated by NITE and RS processes was investigated in conjunction with the detailed analysis of their microstructure and density. The NITE-SiC based materials were fabricated, using a SiC powder with average size of 30 nm. RS- SiCf/SiC composites were fabricated with a complex slurry of C and SiC powder. In the RS process, the average size of starting SiC particle and the blending ratio of C/SiC powder were $0.4\;{\mu}m$ and 0.4, respectively. The reinforcing materials for /SiC composites were BN-SiC coated Hi-Nicalon SiC fiber, unidirectional or plain woven Tyranno SA SiC fiber. The characterization of all materials was examined by the means of SEM, EDS and three point bending test. The density of NITE-SiCf/SiC composite increased with increasing the pressure holding time. RS-SiCf/SiC composites represented a great decrease of flexural strength at the temperature of $1000\;^{\circ}C.$

Continuous SiC fiber-reinforced SiC-matrix composites ($SiC_f$/SiC) had been fabricated by electrophoretic infiltration combined with ultrasonication. Nano-sized ${\beta}$-SiC added with 12 wt% of $Al_2O_3-Y_2O_3$ additive and Tyranno$^{TM}$-SA3 fabric were used as a matrix phase and fiber reinforcement, respectively. After hot pressing at 5 different conditions, the density, microstructure and mechanical properties of $SiC_f$/SiC were characterized. Hot pressing at relatively severe conditions, such as $1750^{\circ}C$ for 1 and 2 h, resulted in a brittle fracture behavior due to the strong fiber-matrix interface in spite of their high flexural strength. On the other hand, toughened $SiC_f$/SiC composite could be achieved by hot pressing at milder condition because of the formation of weak interface in spite of the decreased flexural strength. These results proposed the importance of weak fiber-matrix interface in the fabrication of ductile $SiC_f$/SiC composite.

본 연구에서는 탄소섬유, 탄화규소섬유 그리고 하이브리드섬유를 강화재로 하여 TGCVI와 PIP 혼합 공정으로 $C_f/SiC$, $SiC_f/SiC$, $C_f-SiC_f/SiC$의 세라믹복합재를 제조하였다. 열충격싸이클시험, 3점 굴곡시험과 Oxy-Acetylene 토취 시험후에 그들의 기계적물성, 산화저항성과 내삭마성을 평가하였다. $C_f/SiC$복합재는 온도 증가에 따라서 기계적물성의 감소와 준 연성의 파단모드, 그리고 높은 삭마량을 보였다. $SiC_f/SiC$복합재는 $C_f/SiC$ 복합재에 비하여 강한 기계적물성, 낮은 삭마량을 그리고 취성의 파단모드를 나타냈다. 한편 하이브리드 복합재는 가장 우수한 기계적물성과 $SiC_f/SiC$보다는 연성의 파단모드 그리고 $C_f/SiC$ 보다 낮은 삭마량의 결과를 나타냈다. Oxy-Acetylene 토취 시험 중에 SiC매트릭스는 산화되어 $SiO_2$층을 형성하였으며, 특히 이 층은 $C_f-SiC_f/SiC$와 $SiC_f/SiC$ 복합재에서 섬유의 추가적인 삭마를 막는 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 결론적으로 낮은 기공율을 갖는 하이브리드 복합재를 제조한다면, $C_f/SiC$의 산화로 인한 기계적물성의 감소와 $SiC_f/SiC$ 복합재의 취성 파단모드의 개선으로 고온 산화분위기에서 고온열구조재로의 적용이 높을 것으로 기대한다.

For the preparation of SiC composite, the properties of reaction sintering in the SiC-C-Si-Ti system with the titanium contents variation were investigated. Either the case of titanium additions or the case of direct infiltration of titanium in SiC+C preform, the newly formed fine-grained $\beta$-SiC, which was reacted from the molten silicon with graphite, was intergranulated between the original $\alpha$-SiC particles. Also titanium disilicide (TiSi2) was discontinuously formed isolated pocket in silicon matrix. The amount of titanium disilicide was gradually increased as titanium content increase. With the results of hardness and fracture toughness measurement, SiC-titanium disilicide (TiSi2) composite represented high properties compared with the system of the infiltrated pure silicon.

SiC 보강재 표면에 도금된 Cu금속층이 Al/SiC복합재료의 젖음성에 미치는 영향을 검토하였다. 보강재에 대한 금속층의 도금은 무전해도금법을 이용하였으며, Al/SiC 복합재료의 제조는 텅스텐 발열체 진공로의$ 670^{\circ}C$~$900^{\circ}C$에서 제조하여 보강재와 기지간의 접촉부위를 촬영하여 젖음성을 측정하였다 젖음성 측정 결과 보강재에 도금된 Cu층은 젖음성을 향상시켰고, 젖음성의 개선은 보강재에 도금된 금속층과 기지간의 반응에 의해 계면에너지를 변화시킴으로서 나타난 결과이며. 반응을 통한 산화피막의 배제도 영향을 미친 것으로 판단된다

The efficiency of complex slurry preparation route for the development of high performance RS-SiCf/SiC composites has been investigated. The green bodies for RS-SiC and RS-SiCf/SiC composite materials prior to the infiltration of molten silicon were prepared with various C/SiC complex matrix slurries, which associated with both different sizes of starting SiC particles and blending ratios of starting SiC and carbon particles. The reinforcing materials in the composite system were uncoated and C coated Tyranno SA SiC fiber. The characterization of RS-SiC and RS-SiCf/SiC composite materials was examined by means of SEM, EDS and three point bending test. Based on the mechanical property-microstructure correlation, process optimization methodology is discussed.

Silicon carbide and its composites are being considered as a nuclear fuel cladding material for LWR nuclear reactors because they have a low neutron absorption cross section, low hydrogen production under accident conditions, and high strength at high temperatures. The SiC composite cladding tube considered in this study consists of three layers, monolith CVD SiC - $SiC_f$/SiC composite -monolith CVD SiC. The volume fraction of SiC fiber and surface roughness of the composite layer affect mechanical and corrosion properties of the cladding tube. In this study, various types of SiC fiber preforms with tubular shapes were fabricated by a filament winding method using two types of Tyranno SA3 grade SiC fibers with 800 filaments/yarn and 1600 filaments/yarn. After chemical vapor infiltration of the SiC matrix, the surface roughness and fiber volume fraction were measured. As filament counts were changed from 800 to 1600, the surface roughness increased but the fiber volume fraction decreased. The $SiC_f$/SiC composite with a bamboo-like winding pattern has a smaller surface roughness and a higher fiber volume fraction than that with a zigzag winding pattern.

Carbon composites with $MoSi_2$ dispersion were prepared by hot-pressing at $1700^{\circ}C$ under 30 MPa for 1 h using polysilazance as binding material. The composites consisted of C, $Mo_{4.8}Si_3C_{0.6}$ and SiC. Bulk density and porosity of the carbon composites with 10 vol% $MoSi_2$ was 1.8g.$\textrm{cm}^{-3}$ and 34%, respectively. This composite was oxidized about 0.05mm from the surface of the carbon composite after oxidation test at $1500^{\circ}C$ for 10h in air. Formation of the $SiO_2$ glass layer was observed by SEM. When this composite suffered damage in the coating layer, it had hardly farther oxidation because of its self-repairing property. The composite prepared in this study indicated good oxidation resistance.

The Ni-SiC composite plating was performed in a Watt nickel solution and the wear resistance of the composite layer was studied on a pin-on-flat type wear tester. The volume losses and friction coefficients were measured. It was found that the quantity of SiC powder in the composite layers was affected by SiC concentration, pH, temperature, and agitation speed in the Watt nickel solution. The hardness and wear resistance of the coatings increased with SiC content. The quantity of SiC powder in the coating from a nickel sulfamate solution is larger than that of the Watt nickel solution, because the amount of nickel ions absorbed on the SiC powder in the nickel sulfamate solution is greater than that in the Watt's solution.

The thermal stability and elevated temperature mechanical properties of $SiC_P$/Al-11.7Fe-1.3V-1.7Si (Al-11.7Fe-1.3V-1.7Si reinforced with SiC particulates) composites sheets prepared by spray deposition (SD) $\rightarrow$ hot pressing $\rightarrow$ rolling process were investigated. The experimental results showed that the composite possessed high ${\sigma}_b$ (elevated temperature tensile strength), for instance, ${\sigma}_b$ was 315.8 MPa, which was tested at $315^{\circ}C$, meanwhile the figure was 232.6 MPa tested at $400^{\circ}C$, and the elongations were 2.5% and 1.4%, respectively. Furthermore, the composite sheets exhibited excellent thermal stability: the hardness showed no significant decline after annealing at $550^{\circ}C$ for 200 h or at $600^{\circ}C$ for 10 h. The good elevated temperature mechanical properties and excellent thermal stability should mainly be attributed to the formation of spherical ${\alpha}-Al_{12}(Fe,\;V)_3Si$ dispersed phase particulates in the aluminum matrix. Furthermore, the addition of SiC particles into the alloy is another important factor, which the following properties are responsible for. The resultant Si of the reaction between Al matrix and SiC particles diffused into Al matrix can stabilize ${\alpha}-Al_{12}(Fe,\;V)_3Si$ dispersed phase; in addition, the interface (Si layer) improved the wettability of Al/$SiC_P$, hence, elevated the bonding between them. Furthermore, the fine $Al_4C_3$ phase also strengthened the matrix as a dispersion-strengthened phase. Meanwhile, load is transferred from Al matrix to SiC particles, which increased the cooling rate of the melt droplets and improved the solution strengthening and dispersion strengthening.
