Abstract

A bimorphous ceramic/metal composite with uniaxially oriented metal channels was fabricated. A tropical climbing palm rattan was selected as a biological preform due to its morphology exhibiting a pore structure with diameters up to 300 μm. The phase composition of the bimorphous ceramic strongly depend on the processing parameters and anatomy of the biological preforms. Thus it was observed that SiSiC/Al-Si composites can be manufactured by pressure-assisted Al-Si alloy melt infiltration into bimorphous SiSiC preforms derived for the rattan palm.
