An aluminum-boron-carbon (ABC) ceramic-metal composite bonded to a metal or metal-ceramic composite other than ABC composite is made by forming a porous body comprised of particulates being comprised of a boron-carbon compound that has a particulate layer of titanium diboride powder on the surface of the porous body. The porous body is infiltrated with aluminum or alloy thereof resulting in the simultaneous infiltration of the TiB2 layer, where the layer has an aluminum metal content that is at least about 10 percentage points greater by volume than the (ABC) composite. The ABC composite is then fused to a metal or metal-ceramic body through the infiltrated layer of titanium diboride, wherein the metal-ceramic body is a composite other than an aluminum-boron-carbon composite. |

Surface metallization technology for ceramic substrates is disclosed herein. It makes use of a known phenomenon that many metal-metal oxide alloys in liquid state readily wet an oxide ceramic surface and strongly bond to it upon solidification. To achieve high adhesion strength of a metallization to ceramic, a discrete metallization layer consisting of metal droplets bonded to ceramic surface using metal-metal oxide bonding process is produced first. Next, a continuous metal layer is deposited on top of the discrete layer and bonded to it using a sintering process. As a result a strongly adhering, glass-free metallization layer directly bonded to ceramic surface is produced. In particular, the process can be successfully used to metallize aluminum nitride ceramic with high thermal and electrical conductivity copper metal. |

A method is disclosed to fabricate carbon foams comprising a bicontinuous network of disordered or irregular macropores that are three-dimensionally interconnected via nanoscopic carbon walls. The method accounts for (1) the importance of wetting (i.e., matching the surface energies of fiber to sol) and (2) the viscosity of the microheterogeneous fluid filling the voids in the carbon paper. Carbon fiber papers are mildly oxidized by plasma etching, which greatly enhances the uniform uptake of resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) mixtures. The RF solutions are oligomerized prior to infiltration and are cured into continuous polymeric webs that hang supported between adjacent carbon fibers; the polymer-fiber composites are pyrolyzed and retain a sponge-like morphology with 10-1000-nm pores and integrated electronic pathways |
