PhD Studentship: Advanced Ox/Ox CMC Interphase Design

Technical University of Denmark is developing a weak interphase Ox/Ox Ceramic Matrix Composite (CMC) system to improve interlaminar properties while maintaining environmental resistance.

The project will investigate novel manufacturing methods to achieve a high-density oxide matrix and will assess factors such as coating thickness and ageing temperature through initial composite manufacturing trials and fibre push-in/push-out tests.
