A Review of Continuous Fiber Reinforced Titanium Alloy Matrix Composites

Abstract:

The processing of continuous fiber reinforced titanium alloy matrix composites (Ti MMCs) is reviewed in this paper. Special attention is placed on three processing methods: fiber foil fiber(FFF), plasma coating (PCM) and physical vapor deposition (PVD). The research progress in reinforcing fiber and matrix alloy selection is discussed. Particular attention being paid to the fibers SiC and Al 2O 3. The mechanical properties and damage evaluation of the composites are also presented.
