  • PROCESS FOR PRODUCING SILICON CARBIDE FIBERS ESSENTIALLY DEVOID OF WHISKERS
    Publication number: 20060147368
    Abstract: Method for producing silicon carbide fibers by mixing discontinuous isotropic carbon fibers with a silica source and exposing the mixture to a temperature of from about 1450° C. to about 1800° C. The silicon carbide fibers are essentially devoid of whiskers have excellent resistance to oxidation and excellent response to microwave energy, and can readily be formed into a ceramic medium employing conventional ceramic technology. The fibers also may be used for plastic and metal reinforcement.
    Type: Application
    Filed: July 22, 2005
    Publication date: July 6, 2006
    Applicant: Advanced Composite Materials Corporation
    Inventors: Derek Angier, James Rhodes, William Rogers
