A method of fabricating a high density thin component which can be used in an electrochemical converter comprises tape casting a material to form a tape followed by hot pressing of the tape to provide additional densification of the material. A plurality of tapes may be laminated together prior to hot pressing to provide a thicker structure or a composite structure. The materials used to produce the component may include silicon carbide, SiC, high chromium alloys, chromium iron alloys, (Cr-5 wt % Fe-1 wt % Y2O3) and chromium magnesium alloys (Cr-5 wt % Ni-1 wt % MgO). The fabrication method produces a high density component, including the application in an electrochemical converter, having a thickness of less than about 0.03 inches. |
