Abstract
A ceramic matrix composite (CMC) anchor () joining a metal substrate () and a ceramic thermal barrier (). The CMC anchor extends into and interlocks with the ceramic barrier, and extends into and interlocks with the metal substrate. The CMC anchor may be a honeycomb () or other extending-into-and-interlocking geometry. A CMC honeycomb may be formed with first () and second () arrays of cells () with open distal ends () on respective opposite sides of a sheet (). The cells may have walls () with transverse passages (). A metal () may be deposited into the cells and passages on one side of the sheet, forming a metal substrate locked into the honeycomb. A ceramic insulation material () may be deposited into the cells and passages on the opposite side of the sheet, forming a layer of ceramic insulation locked into the honeycomb.
