2D C/SiC composite was modified with partial BCx matrix by low pressure chemical vapor infiltration technique (LPCVI), which was named as 2D C/SiC-BCx composite. The flexural fracture behavior, mechanism, and strength distribution of 2D C/SiC-BCx composite are investigated. The results indicate that the flexural strength, fracture toughness, and fracture work are 442.1 MPa, 22.84 MPa m(1/2), and 19.2 kJ m(-2), respectively. The flexural strength of C/SiC-BCx composite decrease about 20% than that of C/SiC composite. However, the fracture toughness and fracture work increase about 19% and 18.5%, respectively. The properties varieties between C/SiC-BCx composite and C/SiC composite can be attributed to the weak-bonding interface between BCx/SiC matrices according to the results of detailed microstructure analysis. The strength distribution of 2D C/SiC-BCx composite follows as Normal distribution or Weibull distribution with sigma(u) = 0, and m = 8.1393. The mean value of flexural strength for 2D C/SiC-BCx composite is 443 MPa obtained by theory calculation, which is consistent with experiment result (442.1 MPa) very well.
