Abstract
Materials comprising carbon nanotube (CNT) aligned nanowire (NW) polymer nanocomposites (A-PNCs) are emerging as next-generation materials for use in aerospace structures. Enhanced operating regimes, such as operating temperatures, motivate the study of CNT
aligned NW ceramic matrix nanocomposites (A-CMNCs). Here we report the synthesis of CNT A-CMNCs through the pyrolysis of CNT A-PNC precursors, thereby creating carbon matrix CNT A-CMNCs. Characterization reveals that the fabrication of high strength,
high temperature, lightweight next-generation aerospace materials is possible using this method. Additional characterization and modeling are planned.
