Abstract: Silicon Carbide based Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) are attractive materials for use in high-temperature applications in the aerospace and nuclear industries. However, creep damage mechanism in CMCs is the most dominant mechanism at elevated temperatures. Consequently, the tensile creep behavior of Hi-Nicalon, Hi-Nicalon Type S SiC fibers and Chemical vapor infiltrated Silicon Carbide matrix (CVI-SiC) were characterized and creep parameters were extracted from creep experiments. Some fiber…
