- Description
- This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; offers are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This notice is being issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for the purchase of Three (3) high temperatures Hi-Nicalon Type-S/melt infiltrated (MI) SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composite (CMC) panels for environmental barrier coatings and coating - CMC system property evaluations. The CMC panels should have a dimension of 6 x 9 x 0.08 inches, using high performance Nicalon Type-S fibers, a state-of-the art woven fiber architecture preform (fabricated using 8 plies each of woven Hi-Nicalon Type-S fabric, and 5-Harness Satin Weave), and a combined chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) and slurry melt-infiltration (MI) processing for the density. In the CMC processing, the fabric preforms shall be tooled and processed with a CVI-derived boron nitride (BN, preferably 0.5 microns in thickness) fiber coating to promote high strength and toughness. The fiber coating and peroxidation process may be incorporated to enhance the final CMC performance. The coated preforms will be subsequently rigidized with CVI SiC and then consolidated using a reactive silicon melt infiltration process. The panels shall have a final theoretical density ratio of no less than 90%, and fiber volume fraction of 36%, respectively, after the combined chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) and slurry melt-infiltration (MI) processing to achieve the CMC high temperature. The provisions and clauses in the RFQ are those in effect through FAC 2005-72. http://nais.nasa.gov/far/ This procurement is a total small business set-aside The NAICS Code and the small business size standard for this procurement are 335991, 750 respectively.
