Silicon/silicon carbide ceramic composites are made by infiltrating carbonaceous material with liquid silicon to form SiC crystallites dispersed in a silicon matrix. The present study was conducted to determine the effects on the room temperature properties of density, elastic modulus, strength, and fracture toughness by varying the amount and distribution of the SiC crystallites. Most of the work involved uniaxially aligned SiC crystals of varying volume fraction tested both longitudinally and transversely to the converted fibre axis. |
