... high-temperature composites (used in casings, seals, transmissions) ...

CONT

The challenge with refractory graphite filaments, for example,is to combine them with a suitable supporting[...] material such as a graphitizable pitch to produce efficient refractory composite materials.

OBS

high-temperature materials : materials that serve above 1000 °C. In the broad sense, high-temperature materials can be identified by the following classes of construction solids: stainless steel, austenitic superalloys, refractory metals, ceramics and ceramic composites, metal-matrix composites, and graphitic composites.

OBS

Attention: "high-temperature material" peut contenir une matrice autre qu'une matrice minérale ou réfractaire.

CONT

Les matériaux composites réfractaires (appelés aussi matériaux composites à matrice minérale) associent un renfort et une matrice utilisables en service continu à des températures supérieures à 1 000 °C. Les plus connus sont les matériaux carbone-carbone.

CONT

Les matériaux dont la matrice est constituée d'un verre ou d'une céramique sont des composites minéraux, encore appelés composites réfractaires. Les applications hautes et très hautes températures leur sont réservées.
