Mg alloy infiltrated Si–O–C ceramic foams

Abstract

Magnesium alloys reinforced with an open cell ceramic foam form interpenetrating phase composites that offer improved strength and creep resistance at elevated temperatures. Open cell polymer derived Si/SiC/Si–O–C ceramic foams were fabricated from Si/SiC loaded poly(silsesquioxane) by an in situ foaming process at 270°C followed by pyrolysis at 1000°C in inert atmosphere. The ceramic foams are characterized by a high interconnectivity of the …
