Abstract

Abstract A ceramic-metal composite laminate capable of exposure to high temperature differentials without damage, consisting of an inner ceramic layer, an outer metal layer and an intermediate interface layer of a low modulus metallic low density structure having a high melting point. The ceramic layer is secured to the low modulus structure directly or through an intermediate ceramic-metal composite, and the outer metal layer is brazed to the intermediate low modulus layer. Thermal strains caused by a temperature differential between the inner and outer layers are taken up without harmful effect by the intermediate low modulus layer.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 109 words
A ceramic material made of a particle mixture of a first material having a composition of 35-55 percent SiO 2 +45-55 percent Al 2 O 3 and up to 2 percent a second material having a composition of borosilicate glass, each of the particles of the components having a size range up to 80 microns, wherein upon sintering the first and second component materials, free quartz is released and the material forms a structure having mullite fibers surrounded by a matrix of said glass containing dissolved quartz, the material usable in a high temperature range from about 1800° F. to 3000° F. depending upon the erosion and loading environments.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 109 words
A ceramic material made of a particle mixture of a first material having a composition of 35-55 percent SiO 2 +45-55 percent Al 2 O 3 and up to 2 percent a second material having a composition of borosilicate glass, each of the particles of the components having a size range up to 80 microns, wherein upon sintering the first and second component materials, free quartz is released and the material forms a structure having mullite fibers surrounded by a matrix of said glass containing dissolved quartz, the material usable in a high temperature range from about 1800° F. to 3000° F. depending upon the erosion and loading environments.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 97 words
A mixture of mullite (3Al 2 O 3 .2SiO 2 ) fibers and a low expansion reactive glass, having one of the following compositions 80.5 SiO 2 --12.9 B 2 O 3 --3.8 Na 2 O--2.2 Al 2 O 3 --0.4 K 2 O, or 67.0 SiO 2 --27.4 BaO--5.6 Al 2 O 3 (all in weight percent); the mixture consisting of 70-99 percent by volume of said mullite fibers and 1-30 percent by volume of said glass wherein the glass reacts and bonds the mullite fibers at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the fibers.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 97 words
A mixture of mullite (3Al 2 O 3 .2SiO 2 ) fibers and a low expansion reactive glass, having one of the following compositions 80.5 SiO 2 --12.9 B 2 O 3 --3.8 Na 2 O--2.2 Al 2 O 3 --0.4 K 2 O, or 67.0 SiO 2 --27.4 BaO--5.6 Al 2 O 3 (all in weight percent); the mixture consisting of 70-99 percent by volume of said mullite fibers and 1-30 percent by volume of said glass wherein the glass reacts and bonds the mullite fibers at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the fibers.
