To address these issues, mullite （3Al2O3.2SiO2）/silicon carbide （SIC） coatings were deposited on C/C composite substrates characterized into high and low densities. The coatings were applied by a two-step approach： pack cementation and silica sol based slurry coating processes. The relationship between the microstructure of 3Al2O3·2SiO2/SiC coatings and C/C substrates during isothermal oxidation cycle at 1 500 ℃ was investigated using X-ray diffractometer （XRD） and scanning electron microscope （SEM） mounted with energy dispersive spectrometer （EDS）. The results indicate that the density of the substrates has a marked effect on the coatings. Dense, thick and well-bonded coatings are obtained in the high density substrate. After 106 h of isothermal oxidation, the high density substrate with 3Al2O3-2SiO2/SiC coating offers effective protection as compared to low density substrate suffering recession.展开更多
