C/C performs with four different open porosities in the range of 12.4%~45.7% were reactive-melt-infiltrated (RMI) with silicon to rapidly fabricate C/C-SiC composites. The influence of the C/C porosity on the Si infiltration during the processing and on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the resulting C/C-SiC composites were investigated by means of density measurement, XRD, SEM, and three-point bending test, respectively. The results show that the higher porosity of C/C brought more silicon infiltration during RMI processing. The porosity also played a key role to dominate the content of β-SiC, residual Si and C phases, as well as the porosity of the resulting C/C-SiC composites. The flexural strength and the fracture behavior of the composites were strong influenced by the matrix content and the interface between different phases. C/C-SiC derived from C/C with 24.8% porosity has the highest flexural strength (325.1MPa) and shows a brittle fracture behavior.
Keywords: C/C-SiC; open porosity; reactive melt infiltration; mechanical property; microstructure
