Ceramic composite bodies and process for their production

Abstract

Abstract A ceramic composite is described which consists of a matrix containing incorporated particles of sintered material and/or other reinforcing components and which is obtainable by subjecting a mixture of an organosilicon polymer with a metallic filler, which reacts with the decomposition products forming during the pyrolysis of the polymer compounds, to a pyrolysis and reaction process. Owing to the high density achievable and the associated outstanding mechanical and thermal properties, these ceramic shaped articles are very suitable as high temperature-resistant and wear-resistant ceramic composite materials for machine components and structural components which are exposed to high mechanical and thermal stresses.
