COMPOSITES AND METHODS OF FORMING COMPOSITES HAVING TAILORED HARDNESS PROFILE

An aerospace component (100) may comprise a fiber reinforced composite material (102). The fiber reinforced composite material (102) includes a plurality of fiber layers and a carbon matrix (106) surrounding the plurality of fiber layers. A plurality of ceramic particles (108) is dispersed in the ca...

Summary:An aerospace component (100) may comprise a fiber reinforced composite material (102). The fiber reinforced composite material (102) includes a plurality of fiber layers and a carbon matrix (106) surrounding the plurality of fiber layers. A plurality of ceramic particles (108) is dispersed in the carbon matrix (106). A first fiber layer of the plurality of fiber layers may include a carbon fiber (104a), and a second fiber layer of the plurality of fiber layers may include a non-carbon fiber (104b). A hardness of the non-carbon fiber (104b) is greater than a hardness of carbon fiber (104a).
