Abstract: In order to obtain the near net shaped SiC/SiC composite pins without the processing cost, four kinds of SiC fiber pin preforms including the knitting yarn and core yarn with two dimension braided structure were designed. The SiC/SiC composite pins were fabricated by precursor infiltration pyrolysis (PIP) process used a liquid SiC ceramic precursor. The results showed that, the near net shaped SiC/SiC composite pins could be obtained by using the designed SiC fiber preform and the graphite mould with curved groove. The macrostructure and microstructure of the SiC/SiC composite pins were observed by scanning electron microscope. Both the single shear stress-displacement curves and the double shear stress-displacement curves of the different kinds of SiC/SiC composite pins showed the saddle-shaped, which indicated the fracture model of the SiC/SiC composites pins was non-catastrophic, and the SiC/SiC composite pins in this paper possessed the secondary bearing capacity. This paper may provide some new ideas for fiber reinforced SiC ceramic matrix composites components designers.
