Abstract
A reinforced composite structure is disclosed comprising a heat resistant chemically-bonded layer of a ceramic composition mechanically attached to a metallic substrate. The structure includes a metallic anchoring matrix characterized by a plurality of spatially and cooperably arranged reinforcing elements, the matrix being attached to the substrate and projecting from the surface thereof with the spatially arranged reinforcing elements of the matrix collectively defining a ceramic-occupiable zone of finite thickness adjacent to and following the surface configuration of said substrate, the zone having at least confined therein the heat resistant chemically-bonded ceramic in intimate contact with the reinforcing elements. A method for fabricating said composite structure is also disclosed.
