Abstract

SiC coating was prepared on the surface of C/SiC composites by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, and then mechanical behavior of CVD-SiC coated C/SiC composites under cold and thermal cycling had been investigated. Specimens were thermally cycled between the temperatures of −100 °C and 100 °C for up to 200 cycles, respectively. The coating was characterized by XRD, SEM and EDS. The results showed that there were no significant changes in the flexural property. CVD-SiC coated C/SiC composites had good mechanical stability in above simulated space environments. While great changes occurred on both elements and structure of the coating, from homogeneous single-phase of SiC into the inner layer of SiC and the outer of C, which caused the change of the bending strength.
