Abstract:
Provided herein are high performance reinforcing nanostructure additives, high throughput processes for using such additives, and composites comprising such additives. Such nanostructure additives include nanofibers, including nanofiber fragments, of various matrix materials, including metal(s) (e.g., elemental metal(s), metal alloy(s), etc.), metal oxide(s), ceramic(s), metal carbide(s), carbon (e.g., carbon nanocomposites comprising carbon matrix with metal component embedded therein), and/or combinations thereof.

Claim (Index 18):
A silicon carbide reinforcing nanostructure, the nanostructure comprising a continuous matrix of silicon carbide, the silicon carbide constituting at least 95 wt. % of the nanostructure;\n the nanostructure having a diameter of less than 2000 nm; the nanostructure having an aspect ratio of more than 20; the nanostructure having a Young's modulus of at least 1,000 GPa; the nanostructure having an ultimate strength of at least 8000 MPa; the nanostructure having a fracture toughness of at least 3 MPa\u00b7m 1/2 ; and the nanostructure having a length of at least 500 \u03bcm.
