Topic 4 – Oxide/oxide ceramics
Oxide-oxide CMC are nowadays materials with an appreciable degree of maturity. Well-identified applications are existing in heat generation (terrestrial turbines), in aeronautic propulsion (engine rear plug) and in industry (burners, holders, etc …). However there still exists an important potential of development with new formulations of matrices, fiber/matrix associations, inclusion of geopolymers, new processing routes, improvement of mechanical performances (especially the strain to failure), not to mention that new, generic or specific applications are still to be considered.
