  • Patent number: 11332411
    Abstract: A method for producing a consolidated fiber preform intended for the manufacture of a part made of composite material, includes shaping a fiber texture in a heated metal mold, the texture being pre-impregnated with a transient or fugitive material, or shaping a fiber texture in a metal mold and injecting a transient or fugitive material into the fiber texture held in shape in the metal mold, cooling the mold, removing the set fiber preform from the mold, coating the fiber preform with a slurry containing a powder of ceramic or carbon particles, heat-treating the coated fiber preform so as to form a porous shell around the fiber preform by consolidation of the slurry and so as to remove the transient or fugitive material present in the fiber preform, consolidating the fiber preform by gas-phase chemical infiltration.

  • Publication number: 20210292245
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing a part made of composite material with a matrix at least predominantly made of ceramic includes producing a fibrous structure by three-dimensional or multilayer weaving; shaping the fibrous structure to form a fibrous preform core; depositing an interphase on the fibers of the preform core; consolidating the preform core by partial densification of the core including the formation of a matrix phase by chemical vapor infiltration or by a liquid process; depositing a powder of ceramic particles in the porosity of the preform core; draping one or more layers of pre-impregnated non-woven fibers over all or part of the outer surface of the preform core; heat treatment of the preform core and of the pre-impregnated layer(s) to form a hybrid fibrous preform; further densifying by infiltration of the hybrid fibrous preform with an infiltration composition containing at least silicon to obtain a ceramic matrix composite part.

  • Patent number: 9157142
    Abstract: An aluminization process by vapor phase deposition for high-temperature oxidation protection of a metal turbomachine part. The part including a cavity into which a metal component is introduced and assembled from an opening in the part. A halide is formed by reaction between a halogen and a metal donor containing aluminum, then the halide is transported by a carrier gas in order to come into contact with the metal part, wherein the metal component has first, before the implementation of the process, been surface-enriched with aluminum in order to serve as an aluminum donor.
