COATING Al2O3 ON CARBON FIBERS BY SOL-GEL PROCESS
-
Abstract
Coating process of Al2O3 on carbon fibers and effect of the coating on wettability of carbon fibers by molten aluminum were investigated.Uniform coating on carbon fibers was obtained by the optimized parameters.The coating improved the oxidation-resistance,the strength & the wettability of carbon fibers,and also made the fabricating process of metal matrix composites easier.
