Ceramic matrix composite for high temperature application containing ceramic fibers coated with a MAX phase

摘要

The invention refers to a ceramic matrix composite CMC (10) comprising ceramic fibres (1), embedded in a ceramic matrix (3). It is characterized in that the fibres (1) comprise a coating (2) made of a MAX phase. The MAX phase coating (2) could be arranged direct on the surface of the fibre (1) or for example between additional coating layers (4) and (5). The properties of the CMC are improved, preferable the high-temperature capabilities.
