The values of flexural strength were 860 MPa at room temperature and 1010 MPa at 1300C in vacuum. Above the infiltration temperature, the failure behavior of the composites became brittle because of the strong interfacial bonding and the mis-match of thermal expansion coefficients between fiber and matrix.

Introduction Continuous fiber reinforced ceramic matrix compo￾sites (CFCCs) show superior performance when super￾alloy at elevated temperatures and higher toughness wheen compared with monolithic ceramics [1–4]. For these reasons, CFCCs have the most potential to be used in advanced aero-engines, space, and fusion power reac￾tors [1–4]. Among these CFCCs, silicon carbide fiber reinforced silicon carbide composites (SiC/SiC) are pro￾mising and have received considerable attention. Many investigations have been conducted on one dimension (1D) and two-dimension (2D) woven SiC/SiC composite materials [5–12]. Recently, attention has been focused on three-dimension woven or braided ceramic matrix composite materials in order to meet mechanical and thermal properties requirements under most complex loads [13–18]. The present research involved 3D textile Hi-Nicalon SiC/SiC composites prepared by chemical vapor infil￾tration and examined the mechanical properties over the temperature range from room temperature to 1300C. The aims of the current contribution are to develop an understanding of the architecture on the mechanical properties and the damage behavior of the 3D Hi-Nica￾lon SiC/SiC composites and to expand the experimental knowledge for the three dimensional textile composite materials. 2.
