“…[23] Yet, this method increased the manufacturing difficulty of composites, and researchers also studied the co-extrusion of C f and ceramic slurries. [34,35] Li et al developed a thermally assisted ME 3D printing system to print a thermoplastic SiC ink and C f simultaneously. The final specimens exhibited a maximum bending strength of 149.1 AE 8 MPa and fracture toughness of 5.32 AE 0.4 MPa m 1/2 , respectively.…”

3D printing was reported in the fabrication of continuous carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide ceramic matrix composites (Cf/SiC CMCs), however, there are layer defects in the 3D printed materials, manifested as weak mechanical properties between layers. Therefore, it is essential and urgent to study how to improve the mechanical properties of 3D printed Cf/SiC CMCs at the layers. In this paper, a novel processing technique which combined vertical fiber laying method with material extrusion (ME) 3D printing was proposed to manufacture Cf/SiC CMCs. Firstly, a self‐developed 3D printing fixed‐axis rotating lifting synchronizer was adopted. The vertical fiber laying of continuous carbon fibers (Cf) in Z‐direction was introduced into the X‐Y printing plane. Cf bundles were fixed to a fixed block through a vertical bundle splitter after passing through a rotating transport system. A self‐developed fixed‐axis rotating lifting synchronizer was utilized to achieve the fixed‐axis transportation of Cf. The internal gear drove the link to rotate to avoid the nozzle path, and the bolt was lifted after completing one layer of printing. Five cycles of precursor infiltration and pyrolysis (PIP) were performed to achieve the densification of Cf/SiC CMCs. The effects of Cf bundle numbers on the flexural strength and fracture work of Cf/SiC CMCs were studied. The best performing composite is Cf/SiC CMC with 6 bundles, and the maximum flexural strength and fracture work is 63.84 ± 6.62 MPa and 1291.99 ± 161.39 J/m3, respectively. Compared with pure SiC, the fracture work of Cf/SiC CMC was increased by 2.54 times. This new idea presented in this study lay the future for the preparation of Cf/SiC CMCs.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.

Many energy systems demand heat transfer at high temperatures to keep up with high demand for power, so high‐temperature material that can perform and last under these harsh conditions is needed for heat exchangers. The engineering requirements for these high‐temperature heat exchanger material call for high thermal conductivity, high resistance to fracture, high resistance to creep deformation, environmental stability in environments associated with the application, and high modulus of elasticity while maintaining low cost to make and maintain. Naturally, ceramics are a good solution for this endeavor. In the past, high‐temperature heat exchangers made from ceramics have been used. We provide examples of ceramics in relevant heat exchange applications and provide motivation where additive manufacturing (AM) can improve efficiency. AM for the relevant material is under development, and we provide insight on the AM of ceramic materials and examples of AM heat exchangers keeping cost in mind. The motivation of the review paper is to provide a framework for material and manufacturing selection for high‐temperature heat exchangers for AM to keep up with the demand for better efficiency, better material, better manufacturing, and cost moving forward with AM technology in high‐temperature ceramic heat exchangers.
