Description
Fiber-reinforced silicon carbide composite materials are promising candidates for applications in the aerospace industries as well as future energy sources (fusion and fission). They have structural as well as functional applications. These composites were previously analyzed by methods of neutron scattering and neutron tomography. Recently synchrotron X-ray phase contrast micro-tomography has been performed to get three-dimensional information on the porosity and morpho-textural properties. Porosity plays a major role in their safety and reliability. The length scale of the porosity ranges from macro to micropores. Hence advanced techniques have to be employed to get a complete qualitative and quantitative analysis.
