In-situ 3D visualization of composite microstructure during polymer-to-ceramic conversion

NM Larson, FW Zok - Acta Materialia, 2018 - Elsevier
One route for producing fiber-reinforced ceramic-matrix composites entails repeated
impregnation and pyrolysis of a preceramic polymer in a fiber preform. The process relies
crucially on the development of networks of contiguous cracks during pyrolysis, thereby
allowing further impregnation to attain nearly-full densification. The present study employs in-
situ x-ray computed tomography (XCT) to reveal in three dimensions the evolution of matrix
structure during pyrolysis of a SiC-based preceramic polymer to 1200° C. Observations are …
