The influience of the design preform have been investigated. The fibers/matrix compatibility, the infiltation proces of the woven preform, the type of carbon architecture preform, and the carbonization and graphitization process have been analyzed. The morphology of the C/C/C and the mechanical properties and the coating process with SiC are presented in this this research paper.
