Method For Producing A Composite Including A Ceramic Matrix
First Claim
1. A Method for producing a part made of ceramic material matrix and ceramic material fibres composite material, the method comprising the following successive steps:
- formation of a fibrous preform by intertwining threads constituted of ceramic material fibres on a contact surface of a support element reproducing the internal and/or external shape of the part to be produced;
partial densification of the fibrous preform at a temperature below the melting temperature of the material of the support element and below the melting temperature of the material of the fibres of the preform, said partial densification resulting in a consolidated fibrous preform comprising a matrix volume fraction above 5% and at the most equal to 40% of the matrix volume of the part to be produced;
removal of the support element from the consolidated fibrous preform by chemical attack of the contact surface of the material of the support element;
densification of the consolidated preform, carried out at a temperature below the melting temperature of the fibres of said preform.
