Abstract
Chemical vapor infiltration has been introduced for preparing z-pinned joint, which is made of two-dimensional carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide composite. The effects of oxidation on the shear properties of the joint were investigated. The results showed that the joint strength increases with the increase of oxidation temperature, which is consistent with the oxidation consumption of the carbon phases. An exponential relationship is presented between the weight loss and the joint strength. In contrast, linear relationships are presented between the weight loss and the mechanical properties of the composite. The exponential relationship results from the coupled shear and bending stress states of the pin, according to the failure mechanisms of the joint. It is observed that in-plane and intra-layer cracks are formed under the shear stress. And these cracks are bridged by the fibers under the bending stress. Accordingly, the fiber bridging mechanism contributes to the joint strength before and after oxidation. For the conditions of this study, the joint strength can be roughly estimated as the plus of the in-plane shear strength and the tensile matrix cracking stress.
