Abstract

This paper presents a double-layered coating system consisting of MoSi2 ceramic reinforced with SiC whiskers and a MoSi2-TaSi2 ceramic coating reinforced with SiC whiskers. This system improves oxidation resistance of carbon-bonded carbon fiber (CBCF) composites. Double-layer coating was about 160 µm in thickness and no interfaces or cracks between the layer and matrix were observed. Isothermal oxidation tests revealed that as-prepared coating presented excellent oxidation resistance, which could protect CBCF composites at 1500 °C for 160 min with 0.02% weight loss, whereas weight loss of single MoSi2 ceramic coating reinforced with SiC whiskers reached 0.08%. High-temperature resistance barrier of the glassy phase and Ta2O5 had a positive effect on improving the oxidation resistance of double-layer coating.
