Scalable, Infiltration-Free Ceramic Matrix Composite Manufacturing for Molten Salt Receiver (SIF-CMC)
Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) with high thermomechanical properties is a promising material class for Concentrated Solar Power but current use is limited by a long and tedious manufacturing process with high costs and poor scalability. SIF-CMC provides a novel way to simplify the manufacturing process by dramatically increasing the char yield of the matrix from polymer to ceramic, which makes the CMC affordable and scalable.
