In the development of SiC/SiC composite for nuclear applications, the influence of pyrocarbon interphase texture and thickness on mechanical behavior is investigated. The study reveals that the nature of pyrocarbon directly affects interfacial shear stress and failure mode, regardless of the pyrocarbon thickness within the range studied.
In the framework of SiC/SiC composite development for nuclear applications, the influence of pyrocarbon interphase texture and thickness on the mechanical behavior both on as-processed materials and on irradiated materials is a major concern. Thus, the PyC interphase influence has to be clearly addressed to define its optimal chemical vapor infiltration processing parameters. For this purpose, specific 2.5D SiC/SiC composites reinforced with Hi-Nicalon S fibers and with two kinds of PyC texture and thickness were produced. Transmission electronic microscopy allowed PyC thickness and microstructure/texture characterizations, whereas push-out and tensile tests were employed as experimental mechanical procedures. The original result is that PyC nature directly influences the interfacial shear stress and failure mode of the weakest interface, regardless of the PyC thickness within the studied range. Adhesive failure or cohesive failure are highlighted depending on the PyC CVI deposition mechanisms. Similar post-irradiation characterizations will be required to assess the role of irradiation on the PyC microstructure/texture evolution and mechanical behavior of these materials.
