Abstract
Protective coatings (Al–O–N and Al–O–B–N) on Si–O–C fibers (Tyranno ZMI) were applied in order to enhance oxidation resistance under severe thermo-mechanical conditions in the 400–600 °C temperature range. The coating process consisted in three steps: (i) the transformation of the Si–O–C fiber surface into microporous carbon; (ii) the impregnation of these carbon microporous layers by an aluminium trichloride (AlCl 3) solution and then, (iii) a final heat treatment under ammonia. Processing parameters were studied in order to select the best conditions. Using these conditions, obtained results have shown that coatings were present around each fiber, with a controlled thickness, and that the mechanical properties of the fibers were preserved. Although, these coatings did not entirely stop the oxygen ingress, it has been shown that they strongly reduced the oxidation of the fiber.
