Abstract

The feasibility of developing high-temperature intermetallic composites for use as gas turbine engine components is assessed for a wide range of high temperature intermetallic matrices including aluminides, silicides, Laves and Sigma phases along with Al2O3, SiC, TiC, Si3N4 and Y2O3 as well as ductile refractory metals as either reinforcing phases or coatings. Preliminary evaluations of fabricability and observations of matrix/reinforcing phase compatibility are presented and discussed in terms of various factors, including interstitial impurities, equilibrium phase relationships, kinetics, and physical and mechanical properties of both matrix and reinforcing phases.
