Abstract
The high open porosity of SiC/SiC composites is problematic for uses in advanced thermal or confinement systems. A strong and gas-tight SiC sheath would helpfully complete the composite structure. The aim of this work was to prepare and characterize long, free standing and high strength SiC tubes obtained through a rapid near net shape manufacturing process. The tubes were produced by continuous chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at atmospheric pressure using CH3SiHCl2/C3H6/H2 mixtures. The composition, morphology and microstructure of the CVD-SiC tubes were analyzed in details. The Si/C ratio and crystalline state through wall thickness are related to the progress of gas phase reactions during continuous deposition. The silicon excess in the CVD-SiC coating can be reduced by preheating gases and adding C3H6. C-ring specimens cut from the tubes were submitted to compressive tests at room and high temperature to assess their failure properties and thermomechanical behavior.
