Unidirectional SiC/SiC composites were fabricated under such conditions of selected slurry preparation that a good porous monolith could be obtained. A porous matrix base was formed relatively uniformly in both the intra- and the inter-bundle region in the first PIP processing, and subsequently densified efficiently by repetitive process cycles of PIP. By comparing the resulting composites with those fabricated via the conventional PIP process, it was verified that this newly attempted fabrication process is advantageous in lowering the porosity, particularly by reducing the size of the intra-bundle pores, and leads to an improvement in some representative mechanical properties., 形態: 図版あり, Physical characteristics: Original contains illustrations, 資料番号: PA1520013000}, pages = {863--869}, title = {Improvement in matrix microstructure of SiC/SiC composites by incorporation of pore-forming powder}, volume = {122}, year = {2014} }
