TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) are known for their thermomechanical strength and corrosion resistance, offering great potential for high-temperature energy harvesting applications. However, the traditional CMCs facing issues with their high cost (>$1,000/kg). SRI has developed a novel method that reduce the cost while retaining the performance.
