Abstract
The need for high temperature, oxidation-resistant materials has driven research into oxide-oxide composites. These materials require a crack deflecting mechanism to prevent brittle failure; both interface coatings and porous matrices have proven successful in providing this function. Composites containing interface coatings are still in the research stage, while porous matrix materials are currently more advanced. A review of porous matrix composite properties is given, along with composite processing information. This chapter provides an overview of oxide-oxide composite technology, potential applications, current research issues, and what might be expected in future derivatives. This review will center on high-temperature (> 1000°C) oxide-oxide composites.
