Based on the knowledge gained in the previous KeraFaM project, KeraFaM 2 aims to bring the mechanical properties of C/C-SiC materials closer to the theoretical limits expected from standard and high performance fibers.So far, the following insights were obtained:•Protection of the fibers against conversion during the siliconisation can be achieved by precise tailoring of the fiber-matrix-bonding (FMB). This prevents fiber-matrix-delamination (FMD) and favors segmentation cracks (SC) between fiber bundles, resulting in dense C/C-blocks separated by SiC matrix. Mechanical properties of the resulting C/C-SiC composites are below the theoretical limits. The low utilization rate of fiber properties is attributed to the C/C block structure favoring a fiber bundle pullout.•The formation of the crack structure of the samples observed after carbonization does already start during curing of the resin.•The choice of matrix resin influences the microstructure. The essential difference between the resins are the phenolic and solvent content.•The Ultra High Modulus (UHM) fibers used during the project could not be processed after desizing due to their brittleness.•The micro crack formation for different FMBs during pyrolysis can be modeled employing the Finite Element Method (FEM).The collaboration between the team ceramic composites and structures at the DLR in Stuttgart, the DITF in Denkendorf and the chair of experimental physics 2 at the University of Augsburg has proven to be complementery and effective during KeraFaM. Based on this successful collaboration, the following goals will be pursued in KeraFaM 2:•To raise the fiber utilization rate substructuring of the C/C blocks is intended. This could be achieved by a multilayer sizing. This sizing is used to obtain a more defined tailoring of the FMB and to protect the fibers from conversion. In a second approach a microporous C-matrix will be produced. Both concepts are expected to favor single fiber pullout over fiber bundle pullout.•Analysis of cross-linking reactions, in situ acoustic emissions analysis and nano-CT examination starting at the curing stage of the resin addresses understanding of the microstructure formation. This will ultimately lead to better control of the microstructure and the resulting C/C-SiC composite properties.•The FE-Model will be refined by taking into account experimentally obtained material parameters in order to realistically represent microstructure development for different FMB values. The resulting model will be validated by acoustic emissions analysis and SEM measurements.•The impact of phenolic content of the matrix resins on residual carbon mass, shrinkage and microstructure after carbonization will be evaluated varying the proportion of aromatic compounds of the matrix resin.•To allow further processing and to protect fibers from conversion to SiC, UHM fibers will be modified by applying an additional sizing on top of the as-received sizing.

基于之前KeraFaM项目中获得的知识，KeraFaM 2旨在使C/C-SiC材料的力学性能更接近标准和高性能纤维所期望的理论极限。到目前为止，获得了以下见解：·通过精确定制纤维-基体-粘合（FMB），可以实现在硅化过程中保护纤维免受转化。这防止了纤维-基体-分层（FMD）并有利于纤维束之间的分段裂纹（SC），从而导致由SiC基体分离的致密C/C块。所得C/C-SiC复合材料的力学性能低于理论极限。纤维性能的低利用率归因于有利于纤维束拔出的C/C嵌段结构。·碳化后观察到的样品裂纹结构的形成在树脂固化过程中已经开始。·基体树脂的选择影响微结构。树脂之间的本质区别在于酚和溶剂含量。·项目中使用的超高模量（UHM）纤维由于其脆性而无法在退浆后进行加工。·不同FMB在热解过程中的微裂纹形成可以采用有限元法（FEM）进行建模。在KeraFaM期间，斯图加特DLR的陶瓷复合材料和结构团队，Denkendorf的DITF和奥格斯堡大学实验物理2主席之间的合作已被证明是互补和有效的。基于这次成功的合作，KeraFaM 2将追求以下目标：·为了提高光纤利用率，打算对C/C块进行子结构化。这可以通过多层施胶来实现。这种施胶用于获得更明确的FMB定制并保护纤维免于转化。在第二种方法中，将产生微孔C-基质。预计这两种概念都有利于单根光纤拔出，而不是光纤束拔出。·从树脂固化阶段开始的交联反应分析、原位声发射分析和纳米CT检查解决了对微观结构形成的理解。这将最终导致更好地控制微观结构和C/C-SiC复合材料的性能。·将通过考虑实验获得的材料参数来细化FE模型，以真实地表示不同FMB值的微观结构发展。生成的模型将通过声发射分析和SEM测量进行验证。·通过改变基体树脂中芳香族化合物的比例，评估基体树脂中的酚含量对碳化后残余碳质量、收缩率和微观结构的影响。·为了允许进一步加工并保护纤维不转化为SiC，UHM纤维将通过在收到的上浆剂上施加额外的上浆剂来改性。
