  • High density boron nitride matrix composites
    Publication number: 20050106373
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a composite material comprises forming a mixture comprising a plurality of fibers and a borazine oligomer; subjecting the mixture to a first heating, for 12 hours to 56 hours; and subjecting the mixture to a second heating. The temperature of the first heating is 60° C. to 80° C., and the pressure during the first heating is at least 0.5 MPa, the temperature of the second heating is at most 400° C., and the greatest pressure of the second heating is at least 15 MPa.
