Material preparation The C/SiC composites used in this investigation were processed by isothermal chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) of SiC into woven 0/90 fiber performs at 1000 C. The classical CVI SiC processing methodology has been described elsewhere [12]. The preforms were made from 1 K T-300 carbon fibers and fiber volume contents of the as-processed composites was about 40 vol.%. Fiber architec￾tures of the as-received composite panels are shown in Fig. 1a and b (microstructures in this study were observed with a scanning electron microscope, SEM, Hitachi S-2700, Tokyo, Japan). The mag￾nified surface observation of the crossover fiber bundles indicates the deposition morphology of the CVI-SiC matrix. As is typical of multiple-ply composites, not all plies (X–Y planes) were perfectly aligned in the Z-direction of the panels (Fig. 1a). SEM views of the polished composites exhibit porosity present in the as-pro￾cessed CVI C/SiC, including the inter-bundle pores in Fig. 2a and the inter-filament pores in Fig. 2b. The TEM observation of the upper-left picture in Fig. 2b shows that in the as-processed com￾posite, the carbon fibers were uniformly coated with the PyC inter￾phase (200 nm) and then the column nanocrystals of SiC matrix vertically grew on the soft PyC interphase. The bulk density and porosity of the infiltrated composite pan￾els is 2.2 g/cm3 and 13% in average, respectively. As shown in Fig. 3, tensile specimens were machined from the panels using diamond tooling and further coated with SiC by I-CVI under the same condi￾tions (final coating thickness 50 lm). The specimens had a gage￾section volume of approximately 25  8  3 mm3 . To avoid surface damage of the specimen during the tensile tests, the specimen edges were protected by bonding two pairs of Aluminum tabs (see Fig. 3). 2.2. Mechanical tests Both monotonic tensile and periodic unloading-reloading tests were conducted at room temperature on a servohydraulic load￾frame (Model 8801, Instron Ltd., High Wycombe, England) with a loading rate of 0.06 mm/min. The monotonic tensile tests were real-time monitored by the acoustic emission technique (Model MICRO-80D, Physical Acoustic Corp., NJ, USA). The cyclic unload￾ing-reloading tests were preformed with an incremental step loading of 20 MPa per cycle up to final rupture. To compare the effect of TRS on the macroscopic mechanical response of dif￾ferent CMC composites, a 2D Hi-Nicalon/SiC composite with the same 0/90 SiC fiber (Nippon Carbon Co., Tokyo, Japan) architec￾tures was used to conduct the same unloading–reloading tests as references. The used 2D SiC/SiC composite processed concur￾rently with the previous C/SiC composites under the same I-CVI technology. SEM micrographs in Fig. 4 present the woven fiber architectures and the constituent microstructures of SiC fiber, PyC interphase (200 nm) and CVI-SiC matrix in the 2D SiC/SiC composite. Fig. 1.
