/AB	`ABSTRACT:`
	`Precursors for zircon-carbon mixtures were made to coat fibers for`
	`ceramic-matrix composites. Precursors were characterized using XRD, TGA,`
	`and DTA. Zircon formed from vanadium- or lithium-doped precursors after`
	`heat treatments at > or = 9000C in air, but it did not form at 12000-14000C`
	`in argon when large amounts of carbon were added. Some precursors were used`
	`to coat Nextel 720 and Hi-Nicalon fibers. The coatings were characterized`
	`using SEM and TEM, and coated-fiber tensile strengths were measured.`
	`Although zircon formed in powders, only tetragonal-zirconia-silica mixed`
	`phases formed in fiber coatings at 12000C in air. Loss of vanadium oxide`
	`flux to the fibers may have caused the lack of conversion to zircon. The`
	`strengths of the coated fibers were severely degraded after heat treatment`
	`at > or = 10000C in air, but not in argon. The coated fibers were compared`
	`with zirconia-carbon-coated fibers made using similar methods. Mechanisms`
	`for fiber strength degradation are discussed.`
