Abstract

A silicon carbide fiber reinforced barium modified magnesium aluminosilicate matrix composite is described having high strength and thermal stability at temperatures in excess of 1200.degree. C. The matrix material contains about 5% to about 14% magnesium oxide and about 5% to about 25% barium oxide. While any suitable ratios of fiber to matrix can be used, the composite for most applications for example, in the heat engine area, will contain approximately 20% to 50% by volume silicon carbide fibers.
