Abstract

The thermal and microstructure stability of Nextel 610 fibers has great influence on high-temperature application of Nextel 610 fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites. In this work, Nextel 610 fibers were heat treated at 500–700°C in vacuum and 800–1100°C in Ar atmosphere, respectively. The sizing agent on Nextel 610 fiber surface could be decomposed into pyrolytic carbon, SiC and gaseous little molecules at lower temperatures, otherwise it was decomposed mainly in the form of gaseous little molecules at higher temperatures, so that the complex permittivity firstly increased and then decreased with the increasing of temperatures. The results showed that the annealed Nextel 610 fiber (T>900°C) could be regarded as electromagnetic wave transparent fibers, while the tensile strength had declined by half when the temperature increased to 1100°C. Therefore, Nextel 610 fibers after being annealed at higher temperatures could be further used as reinforcement to prepare high temperature ceramic matrix composites for electromagnetic wave absorption and transparent applications.
