Summary

"Ceramic matrix composites represent a new class of non-brittle refractory materials for harsh and extreme environments, characterized by high thermal stability, corrosion resistance and strength-to-weight ratio. This makes them predestined for use in aerospace, ground transportation, mechanical engineering and power generation." "A valuable information source for scientists, engineers and technicians, as well as students, and a general reference for professionals in materials science and engineering."--Jacket.
