Abstract: | A novel method of fabricating short carbon fiber preforms was proposed for liquid metal infiltration. The preforms were shaped
by wet forming and strengthened by pyrocarbon (PyC). SiC layers were prepared on carbon fibers by the reaction of SiO and
PyC at 1600 °C. X-ray Diffraction, Scanning Electron Microscopy, and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy were applied in
the characterization of the preforms. Gas pressure infiltration was done to demonstrate the feasibility of the preforms for
the liquid metal infiltration. The microstructure analysis indicates that carbon fibers are uniformly distributed in the preforms,
and fibers are coated with an inner layer of PyC and an outer layer of SiC. The infiltration experiment proves that the prepared
preforms are feasible for liquid metal infiltration under low infiltration pressure and temperature. |
