Summary
Three different monazite precursors were applied to Nextel™ 610, 720 and Tyranno-SA™ fiber tows using a continuous vertical coater with immiscible liquid displacement. The coatings were cured in-line at 900°C to 1300°C in argon or in air, and then characterized for thickness and microstructure by optical microscopy, SEM and TEM. The as-coated filaments were tensile tested along with some of the 900°C coatings cured in air at 1200°C for 100 h. Coating characteristics and tensile strengths of the coated fibers from the three monazite precursors were compared. Coated fiber strengths were found to be dependent upon the quantity of gaseous species from the coating precursors and porosity. Coating precursors that made porous monazite coatings preserved fiber strength.
