Contemporary Technology for Preparing Fiber-Reinforced Composite Materials with a Ceramic Refractory Matrix (Review)

Resumo

The state and trends are reviewed and analyzed for contemporary technology of ceramic matrix composite (CMC) preparation, based on solid-, liquid-, and gas and vapor-phase processes. Versions and modifications of their practical implementation are considered for each of the main production methods, and features, achievements, and disadvantages are revealed. It is shown that use of the main production methods and their modification makes it possible to prepare a variety of CMC with both different composition and structure, and also properties. Prospects are analyzed for improvement of CMC preparation methods and their operating properties due to use of microwave technology.
