Abstract Continuous SiC fiber having advantages of high specific strength, high specific modulus, strong wear resisitance and good heat stability is the reinforcement of SiC fiber reinforced titanium matrix composite. SiCf/Ti matrix composite comparing with titanium alloy matrix has strengths of lower density, higher strength, more excellent fatigue and creep deformation resistance, but its transverse property decreases obviously. Therefore, SiCf/Ti matrix composite is used to design unidirectional reinforced structures, such as transmission shafts, blings, blisks and fan blades, and broadly applys to aerospace fields. SiCf/Ti matrix composite’s properties depend on the properties of SiCf, matrix and the interface bonding strength between SiCf and matrix. Duing to the poor properties of batch production SiCf and the less researches of relation between interface bonding state and composite performances, there are not sufficient data to support the design of titanium matrix composite structure at present. Therefore, reseachers have studied on the various types of matrix and fiber, the techniques of composite preparation,the effect of interface feature and production on interface bonding force and interface failure of composites in recent years. The data from studies probably optimize the technique to produce SiCf/Ti matrix composite with low cost, good stability and feasible volume production. Mature SiCf includes the Sigma series from British DERA-Sigma company and the SCS series with strength of 6 200 MPa from USA Textron company. The prepartion techniques of SiCf/Ti matrix composite include foil-fiber-foil, mono-layer technique and matrix-coating fiber technique, etc. The usages of parts determine on the techniques of composite preparation. FFF is applied to large size structures as flat sections, and MCT is utilized to complex structures as blings, shafts, pipes and blades. Interface is the bridge connecting reinforcement and matrix. Interfacial design, interfacial reaction control and reaction products have impact on interfacial mechanical characteristic. Adding transition layer with a better method of selecting double layer consisted of reaction and inert coating layer between fiber and matrix slows down the diffusion and chemical reaction. Interface reaction products are influenced by coating composition, matrix texture, preparation and thermal treatment and environment, etc. Reinforcing fiber and matrix properties, optimizing preparation techniques, controlling interface reaction and products are beneficial to enhance mechanics properities of compo-site. In this paper, the application and research status of these SiCf/Ti matrix composites are reviewed, the choice of the titanium alloys matrix, the different types of SiC fibers and the fabrication of the composites are also summarized systematically. The design of SiCf/Ti matrix composites interface and its reaction products are analyzed. The relationship between the interfacial mechanical pro-perties and the composite properties is illustrated. And finally, the paper points out that the future development of continuous SiC fiber reinforced titanium matrix composite should be focused on the high-performance SiC fiber, the design of interface layer, the relation of interface and property, and the new composites detection and analysis machines, providing reference for the future work.
