Phenolic resin impregnation was combined with liquid silicon infiltration to create a carbon/silicon carbide composite. The potential application for this material is in disc brakes in vehicles due to their oxidation resistance and friction behaviour. The density of the composite was altered until a final value of 2.10g/cm3 was achieved. The thermal conductivity of the composite was measured using the TPS method, and was determined to be 48.72 W/...
