Abstract
The purpose of this study is to develop the processing techniques of Fiber Reinforced Metal by Liquid Phase Diffusion Bonding method with SiC fiber as a reinforcing material and CP Ti(Commercial Pure) as a matrix. The microstructure and the distribution of elements in reaction and CP Ti(Commercial Pure) as a matrix. The microstructure and the distribution of elements is reaction zone among CP Ti/Ti-15wt%Cu-20wt%Ni(TCN20)/SiC long fiber were investigated by Optical Microscope, SEM/EDX, EPMA, X-ray and AES. The results obtained in this study are as follows. 1) When Ti matrix composite materials are fabricated under the bonding condition of 1273Kx1200sec, the SiC long fiber was the most suitable reinforcing material for Ti matrix composite materials. 2) With SiC long fiber under same condition, a TiC layer(1.0-1.6$\mu\textrm{m}$) was observed on the surface of SiC long fiber. 3) Liquid Phase Diffusion Bonding has shown the feasibility of production of Ti matrix composite materials.
