CMC stands for Ceramic Matrix Composite, and these materials are considered a subgroup of both ceramics and composite materials. CMC components are used in the energy and power, defense, aerospace, electrical, and electronics industries. In this Best of the Web Technical Tuesday feature, L&L Special Furnace Co., Inc. delves into the composition, applications, fabricating process, and uniqueness of CMCs.
An excerpt:
“CMCs are able to retain a relatively high mechanical strength even at very elevated temperatures. They offer excellent stiffness and very good stability, both mechanical, thermal, dimensional, and chemical.”
