  • Publication number: 20220316068
    Abstract: A process for depositing a coating on a continuous fibre of carbon or silicon carbide from a precursor of the coating, includes heating a segment of the fibre in the presence of the coating precursor in a microwave field so as to bring the surface of the segment to a temperature allowing the coating to form on the segment from the coating precursor, wherein the segment of fibre is in the presence of a supercritical phase of the precursor of the coating in the reactor and the coating is formed by supercritical phase chemical deposition in the reactor.

  • Patent number: 11427299
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a cell structure for an acoustic attenuation device for a nacelle of an aircraft propulsion assembly. This cell structure includes lateral partitions forming channels that each extend between a first end and a second end and skin elements arranged so that each channel is at least partly closed at the first end thereof by at least one skin element. Each skin element is connected to a respective lateral partition and can move relative to the other lateral partitions. A continuous skin can be assembled on this cell structure so as to at least partly close the channels at the second end thereof and to thus form an acoustic attenuation device.

  • Patent number: 10995038
    Abstract: A method for producing an acoustic attenuation panel from a composite material with a ceramic oxide matrix is provided that includes draping a plurality of plies having fibrous reinforcements including fibers of ceramic material in a mold to define a first skin, depositing blocks made of fugitive material on the first skin such that a space between two blocks is defined, and draping a second plurality of plies on a surface formed by the blocks such that a second skin is defined. Rounded corners of the blocks define radii for connecting the first and second skins with walls of a honeycomb core of the acoustic panel. The method further includes using a liquid medium to infiltrate the skins and spaces with a precursor of a ceramic phase, removing the liquid medium by evaporation or polymerization, and sintering to consolidate the ceramic oxide material and removal the fugitive material.
