Characteristics of re-inforced Carbon-Carbon

Abstract

The Reinforced Carbon-Carbon (RCC) is gaining significant position among the materials of modern period. The light weight and high strength composite is finding its way in various applications of Bio, Medical, Space and Defence fields. The growing use of Carbon Fiber Reinforced Carbon (CFRC) composites as high performing material in aerospace and defence industries has prompted studies in developing technology for machining of these composites in recent years. This paper emphasizes the characteristics and importance of this unique material. The varied and wide applications of CFRC with case studies were discussed in this paper.
