The particle size is from 50 nm to 200 nm. This process has such advantages as high purity, precise compositional control, simple procedure and successive auto-operating. In this process, mixed solution of zirconium acetate and yttrium nitrate was atomized to from a fine mist and blown into the hot zone from the bottom of furnace. The solution was rapidly decomposed at 900℃ and the powder was collected by a filter system. The powder characteristics can be controlled by adjusting the concentration, droplet volume and decomposition temperature of the solution.展开更多

The effects of heating temperature on the synthesis process and the addition of the synthesized composite powder on the properties of the Al2O3-C refractories were investigated. The results show that the synthesized composite powder can be easily obtained by heating the mixture of zircon and carbon black at 1 873 K for 4 h in argon atmosphere, and the relative contents of ZrO2 and SiC in sample reach about 83.7% and 16.3%, respectively. The bulk density, crushing strength and thermal shock resistance of the Al2O3-C refractories can be improved obviously by the addition of the synthesized ZrO2-SiC composite powder.展开更多

X-ray diffractometry（XRD） and scanning electron microscopy（SEM） analyses show the presence of ZrB2 and Al2O3 as the primary phases in the composite powders, while the presence of a very small amount of ZrO2 is thought to be unreacted zirconium oxide. Transmission electron microscopy（TEM） and high resolution electron microscopy（HREM） observations of microstructure of the composite powders indicate that the interfaces of ZrB2/Al2O3 bond well without any interfacial reaction products. It is proposed that the good interfacial bonding of composite powders results from the ZrB2 particles crystallizing and growing on the Al2O3 particles surface with surface defects acting as nucleation centers.展开更多

The morphology and phases of the powder were measured and determined by SEM. EPMA, XRD methods and the testing of flowability, bulk density and microhard-ness. The results show that the metallic components in the powder are in homogeneous distribution , the flowability, bulk density and microhardness are superior to the ZrO2-NiCr powder prepared by mechanically mixing. All components in the coating made of the composite powder are well-distributed because of avoiding segregation in the middle of mixing. It proves that the composite powder is an excellent material for plasma spraying.展开更多

The results indicated that particle size and content of silicon powder affected the cold crushing strength of coked specimens. It increased with the addition of silicon powder and its finer particle size. However, it decreased greatly when using too fine silicon powder. The particle size and content of silicon powder also impacted the phase evolution and microstructure of coked specimens, much more β-SiC whiskers constituted network structure and well distributed in specimens with reduction of their slenderness ratios when finer silicon powder was added, corresponding to that, the specimens＇ pore size distribution range became narrower with smaller pore diameter, but β-SiC whiskers were distributed sparsely and the specific pore volume of small pores increased when much finer powder was added. It was worthly mentioned that some nitride could form in specimens with addition of appropriate particle size and content of silicon powder.展开更多
