Abstract
Recently, research on ceramic-ceramic composites has significantly increased because of the potential of preparing materials with improved crack resistance. Most of the composites studied to date contain short fibers or whiskers as the toughening agent rather than continuous fibers, partly because various ceramic whiskers are widely available and it is relatively easy to process whisker composites. In contrast, only one type of continuous-tow SiC fiber is readily available, and methods of processing continuous fiber composites are more complex.
