The invention relates to a multilayer cladding including a combination of ceramic and metallic components. The multilayer coating includes an inner layer, an intermediate layer and an outer layer. The inner layer can form the cladding structure, the intermediate layer can include a ceramic composite or ceramic-containing composite composed of interlocking woven or braided fibers, e.g., fiber tows wrapped on the inner layer to form a woven structure, and a matrix material, and the outer can be composed of metal or metal alloy, such as, in the form of a coating. The multilayer cladding is effective to protect contents of the cladding structure from exposure to high temperature environments.

1. A ceramic- and metallic-containing multilayer cladding, comprising: an inner layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface composed of metal or metal alloy, structured to form a cavity therein for containing nuclear fuel;an intermediate layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface, formed on the exterior surface of the inner layer, the intermediate layer comprising: a composite, comprising: interlocking ceramic fibers anda matrix selected from the group consisting of ceramic matrix, metal matrix and combinations thereof; orinterlocking ceramic fibers; andan outer layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface, in a coating form composed of aluminum or aluminum alloy deposited on the exterior surface of the intermediate layer. 2. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the inner layer is structured to form a cylindrical tube. 3. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the inner layer comprises a material selected from the group consisting of austenitic steel, ferritic-martensite steel, iron alloy, zirconium alloy, titanium alloy and layered combinations thereof. 4. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the composite comprises woven or braided silicon carbide fibers and a silicon carbide matrix. 5. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the composite comprises woven or braided alumina fibers and an alumina matrix. 6. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the ceramic fibers are in a form of fiber tows configured in a woven or wound structure. 7. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the matrix is deposited onto and into a woven or wound ceramic fiber structure. 8. The multilayer cladding of claim 1, wherein the outer layer is an alumina forming metal alloy with an oxidation resistant coating thereon. 9. The multilayer cladding of claim 8, wherein the outer layer comprises iron-chromium-aluminum alloy optionally with an addition of yttrium. 10. A method of forming a ceramic- and metallic-containing multilayer cladding, comprising: forming an inner layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface composed of metal or metal alloy, structured to form a cavity therein for containing nuclear fuel;applying an intermediate layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface, to the exterior surface of the inner layer, the intermediate layer comprising: a composite, comprising: interlocking ceramic fibers anda matrix selected from the group consisting of ceramic matrix, metal matrix and combinations thereof; orinterlocking ceramic fibers; anddepositing an outer layer having an interior surface and an exterior surface in a coating form composed of aluminum or aluminum alloy on the exterior surface of the intermediate layer. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein applying the intermediate layer comprises: obtaining ceramic fibers in a form of fiber tows;wrapping, winding or braiding the tows onto the inner layer;forming a woven ceramic fiber structure, wherein voids are formed therein; anddepositing the matrix over the woven ceramic structure employing a process selected from chemical vapor deposition, chemical vapor infiltration and sol gel infiltration, to at least partially fill the voids. 12. The method of claim 10, wherein the outer layer encapsulates the inner layer and intermediate layer of the ceramic- and metallic-containing multilayer cladding. 13. The method of claim 10, wherein the outer layer is formed by a process selected from arc, liquid phase or cold spraying.
