Abstract

A thick SiC-Si coating for carbon/carbon (C/C) composites is prepared by one-step pack cementation (PC) process. The microstructure of the coating, the interface structure between the coating and the substrate, and anti-oxidation properties are investigated. As-prepared coating with a thickness of about 774 µm has a dense and microcrack-free structure. Oxidation test results showed that weight gain of SiC-Si coated specimens is about 8.1 mg·cm−2 after oxidation at 1773 K for 338 h, and no failure. By exploring the oxidation resistance of coatings with different thicknesses, it can be found that thickness has a positive effect on coating performance.
