Carbon Fiber Reinforced Silicon Carbide Ceramic Matrix Composites(Cf/SiC CMCs) has attracted wide attention because of its good oxidation resistance of silicon carbide ceramic matrix and high toughness of carbon fiber, but the traditional continuous carbon Cf/SiC CMCs preparation method can not meet the requirements of complex structure.
Therefore, this study adopts an innovative method to produce Cf/SiC CMC, which involvesExtrusion of auxiliary materials for fiber placement(ME)3D printing and thenPrecursor infiltration and pyrolysis(PIP). The effect of ceramic layer height on the characteristics of Cf/SiC CMC was studied in detail. The gap between the continuous fibers and the ceramic matrix can be eliminated by reducing the height of the ceramic layer.This work can provide valuable insights for the 3D printing of fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites.

research conclusion
In this study, high-performance Cf/SiCCMCs was successfully prepared by combining fiber laying auxiliary material extrusion (ME)3D printing and precursor impregnation and pyrolysis (PIP).
The effect of ceramic layer height on the properties of Cf/SiCCMCs was investigated.
A decrease in the height of the ceramic layer increases the fiber content.
With the increase of the height of the ceramic layer, the porosity decreases and the density increases accordingly.
There are more pores in the fiber bundle area and the fiber/ceramic interface, while the ceramic interface is less.
Reducing the height of the ceramic layer can reduce the gap between the fibers and the ceramic matrix.
With the increase of the height of the ceramic layer, the bending strength and fracture toughness first increase and then decrease.
When the thickness of the ceramic layer is 0.75mm, the bending strength and fracture toughness of Cf/SiCCMCs are the highest, which are 288.49 Mpa and 15.19 Mpa m ~(1/2), respectively.
This study is expected to provide valuable enlightenment for the 3D printing of fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composites.
