Also, it simply takes time for any new material to gain commercial acceptance. This work demonstrates a novel method for producing co-continuous composite components that, in principle, should be inexpensive in large-quantity production.

Because the remainder of the precursor supports the transforming material, the transformed composite has virtually the same size and shape as the precursor. Since production techniques for shaped silica precursors based on traditional ceramic processing are widely practiced, procedures for fabricating net-shape bodies from advanced composites are widely available and may be quite inexpensive.

. Such applications include the following: · automotive combustion cylinder liners where high wear resistance is required and improved thermal conductivity and a lower-density, smaller engine mass are desired; · automotive brake rotors where wear resistance, low density, and high thermal conductivity are all benefits; and

For example, methods of rapidly producing dies for polymer injection molding have been considered. Here, high thermal conductivity and wear resistance would benefit the component in service.
