Özet
Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are gaining increasing attention in the scientific community as potential candidates for large-scale applications such as aerospace due to their high melting points and high-temperature strengths. However, their low fracture toughness and thermal shock resistance are severe. Therefore, carbon fibers have been considered as reinforcements to increase the damage tolerance of UHTCs. This study examined whether the production and characterization of ultra-high temperature ceramics can overcome the amount of short carbon fiber used as reinforcement. For this purpose, it is aimed to determine the optimum parameters by characterizing the effects of carbon fiber reinforcement on the densification, morphology and mechanical properties such as elastic modulus, hardness and fracture toughness of the composites produced by spark plasma sintering.
