LIQUIFICATION OF HIGHLY LOADED COMPOSITE SYSTEMS

摘要

A highly loaded, uniform ceramic composite can be made by first preparing a highly loaded suspension of narrow size range particles. Thereafter, a dopant material is admixed with the matrix material suspension. Due to the particle-to-particle interactions of a highly concentrated system, virtually any dopant can be added, including other suspensions, fibers, and whiskers. The process is particularly useful for making composites of materials which coagulate when mixed at low concentration.
