It is difficult for ceramic matrix composites to combine good electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption properties (reflection coefficient, RC less than -7 dB in X band) and good mechanical properties (flexural strength more than 300 MPa and fracture toughness more than 10 M P.m(1/2)). To solve this problem, two kinds of wave-absorbing SiC fibers reinforced Si3N4 matrix composites (SiCf/Si3N4) were designed and fabricated via chemical vapor infiltration technique. Effects of conductivity on EM wave absorbing properties and fiber/matrix bonding strength on mechanical properties were studied. The SiCf/Si3N4 composite, having a relatively low conductivity (its conduction loss is about 33% of the total dielectric loss) has good EMW absorption properties, i.e. a relative complex permittivity of about 9.2-j6.4 at 10 GHz and an RC lower than -7.2 dB in the whole X band. Its low relative complex permittivity matches impedances between composites and air better, and its strong polarization relaxation loss ability help it to absorb more EM wave energy. Moreover, with a suitably strong fiber/matrix bonding strength, the composite can transfer load more effectively from matrix to fibers, resulting in a higher flexural strength (380 MPa) and fracture toughness (12.9 MPa square m(1/2)).
