The influences of SiC particle sizes and annealing on the propertiesof the compositeswere investigated. The results show that SiC particles are distributed uniformly in the Al matrix. The coarse SiC particles result in higher coefficient of thermal expansion （CTE） and higher thermal conductivity （TC）, while fine SiC particles decrease CTE and improve flexural strength of the composites. The morphology and size of SiC particles in the composite are not influenced by the annealing treatment at 400℃for 6h. However, the CTE and the flexural strength of annealed composites are decreased slightly, and the TCis improved. The TC, CTE and flexural strength of the Al/SiC composite with averageSiC particlesize of75 μm are 156 W/（m·K）, 11.6×10^-6K^-1 and 229 MPa, respectively.展开更多

The synthesis, microstructure and oxidation resistance and the anti-oxidation mechanism of Y2Si2O7 coating were investigated.

The morphology of BN interphase was observed by SEM, and the structure was characterized by XRD and FT-IR spectra. The SiCf/SiC composites with dip-coated BN interphase were fabricated by chemical vapor infiltration （CVI） process, and the effects ofBN interphase on the mechanical properties of composites were investigated. The results show that the SiC fibers are fully covered by BN interphase with smooth surface and turbostratic structure （t-BN）, and the thickness is about 0.4 μm. The flexural strengths of SiCf/SiC composites with and without BN interphase are about 180 and 95 MPa, respectively. Compared with the as-received SiCf/SiC composites, the composites with BN interphase exhibit an obvious toughened fracture behavior. From the microstructural analysis, it can be confirmed that the BN interphase plays a key part in protecting the fibers from chemical attack during matrix infiltration and weakening interfacial bonding, which can improve the mechanical properties of SiCf/SiC composites remarkably.展开更多

On the contrary, the corrosion rate of the composite coating after heat treatment decreases with increasing HCl concentration. The corrosion rates of the composite coatings in as deposited state and after heat treatment in H 2SO 4 and H 3PO 4 solutions respectively decrease with the rise of H 2SO 4 and H 3PO 4 concentrations. The corrosion rate of the composite coating as deposited in FeCl 3 solutions decreases with increasing FeCl 3 concentration, while the rate of the composite coating after heat treatment increases with the rise of FeCl 3 concentration. The corrosion rate of 316L stainless steel in the corrosion media of H 2SO 4, HCl, H 3PO 4 and FeCl 3 solutions at different concentrations increases with rising concentration. In addition, the corrosion rate of 316L stainless steel in the corrosion media of H 2SO 4, HCl, H 3PO 4 and FeCl 3 solutions respectively is much greater than that of the RE Ni W P SiC composite coating as deposited and after heat treatment in the same corrosion media.

Nb or Ta was selected as liner material, and the SiC/SiC composite layer was fabricated by winding and different precursor impregnation and pyrolysis(PIP) processes. The tensile strengths of different tube samples were measured at room temperature(RT) and 1200 °C, respectively. The blast property was investigated through the maximum water pressure of tubes. And the fracture microstructures were observed by SEM.The highest tensile strength at RT was 150.7 MPa. The blast strength was enhanced with the PIP process increasing from 1 to 4 cycles and the tube of 4 PIP cycles had the highest water pressure of 34.7 MPa. Compared with the metal tubes, the multi-layer structure improved tensile and blast properties significantly. The different processes such as PIP cycles and pyrolytic carbon(PyC) coating were important factors to enhance the mechanical performances of SiC/SiC-based tubes. However, the retention rate of tensile strength was only 18.5% at 1200 °C.展开更多

The microstructure, mechanical properties, and the water vapor corrosion behavior of the samples were investigated. The BSAS coating was found to be tightly bonded to the substrate and only a few pores and microcracks were observed. The introduction of a silicon middle layer was revealed to reduce thermal stress and promote the healing of defects formed during the laser cladding process. To evaluate the corrosion resistance, the BSAS and Si/BSAS-coated C/SiC com- posites were exposed to an atmosphere of 50% H2O and 50% O2 at 1250 ℃. The resulting weight change and flexural strength were measured as a function of the corrosion time. The addition of the silicon middle layer below the BSAS top layer resulted in a better resistance to water vapor corrosion. Furthermore, the Si/BSAS-coated samples showed a lower weight loss and a smaller reduction in flexural strength than the BSAS-coated and the uncoated samples during water vapor corrosion. Thus, laser cladding is dem- onstrated to be an effective and feasible method to fabricate high-quality ceramic coatings on C/SiC composites. The introduction of a silicon middle layer can inhibit defect formation during the laser clad- ding process and protect the composite from water vapor corrosion.展开更多

As active carbon atoms produced by siliconization of fibers during MSI process were oxidized first and decreased initial oxidation temperature.The initial oxidation temperature of MSI,MSI+CVI and CVI composites was 526,552 and 710℃,respectively.New active carbon atoms were generated due to the breaking of 2D molecular chains during oxidation,so the activation energy of three C/SiC composites was decreased gradually at 500-800℃with oxidation process,exhibiting a self-catalytic characteristic.展开更多

From the microstructural analysis, it can be confirmed that the BN interphase plays a key part in protecting the fibers from chemical attack during matrix infiltration and weakening interfacial bonding, which can improve the mechanical properties of SiCf/SiC composites remarkably.
文摘Immersion experiment results show that corrosion rate of the as deposited RE Ni W P SiC composite coating in HCl solutions increases with the rise of HCl concentration. On the contrary, the corrosion rate of the composite coating after heat treatment decreases with increasing HCl concentration. The corrosion rates of the composite coatings in as deposited state and after heat treatment in H 2SO 4 and H 3PO 4 solutions respectively decrease with the rise of H 2SO 4 and H 3PO 4 concentrations. The corrosion rate of the composite coating as deposited in FeCl 3 solutions decreases with increasing FeCl 3 concentration, while the rate of the composite coating after heat treatment increases with the rise of FeCl 3 concentration. The corrosion rate of 316L stainless steel in the corrosion media of H 2SO 4, HCl, H 3PO 4 and FeCl 3 solutions at different concentrations increases with rising concentration. In addition, the corrosion rate of 316L stainless steel in the corrosion media of H 2SO 4, HCl, H 3PO 4 and FeCl 3 solutions respectively is much greater than that of the RE Ni W P SiC composite coating as deposited and after heat treatment in the same corrosion media.

文摘Carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide(C_(f)/SiC)composites are widely used in aerospace for their excellent mechanical properties.However,the quality of the machined surface is poor and unpredictable due to the material heterogeneity induced by complex removal mechanism.To clarify the effects of fiber orientation on the grinding characteristics and removal mechanism,single grit scratch experiments under different fiber orientations are conducted and a three-phase numerical modelling method for 2.5D C_(f)/SiC composites is proposed.Three fiber cutting modes i.e.,transverse,normal and longitudinal,are defined by fiber orientation and three machining directions i.e.,MA(longitudinal and normal),MB(longitudinal and transverse)and MC(normal and transverse),are selected to investigate the effect of fiber orientation on grinding force and micro-morphology.Besides,a three-phase cutting model of 2.5D C_(f)/SiC composites considering the mechanical properties of the matrix,fiber and interface is developed.Corresponding simulations are performed to reveal the micro-mechanism of crack initiation and extension as well as the material removal mechanism under different fiber orientations.The results indicate that the scratching forces fluctuate periodically,and the order of mean forces is MA>MC>MB.Cracks tend to grow along the fiber axis,which results in the largest damage layer for transverse fibers and the smallest for longitudinal fibers.The removal modes of transverse fibers are worn,fracture and peel-off,in which normal fibers are pullout and outcrop and the longitudinal fibers are worn and push-off.Under the stable cutting condition,the change of contact area between fiber and grit leads to different removal modes of fiber in the same cutting mode,and the increase of contact area results in the aggravation of fiber fracture.

文摘The mechanical performances such as tensile strength and blast property of metal lined SiC/SiC composite cladding tubes were investigated. Nb or Ta was selected as liner material, and the SiC/SiC composite layer was fabricated by winding and different precursor impregnation and pyrolysis(PIP) processes. The tensile strengths of different tube samples were measured at room temperature(RT) and 1200 °C, respectively. The blast property was investigated through the maximum water pressure of tubes. And the fracture microstructures were observed by SEM.The highest tensile strength at RT was 150.7 MPa. The blast strength was enhanced with the PIP process increasing from 1 to 4 cycles and the tube of 4 PIP cycles had the highest water pressure of 34.7 MPa. Compared with the metal tubes, the multi-layer structure improved tensile and blast properties significantly. The different processes such as PIP cycles and pyrolytic carbon(PyC) coating were important factors to enhance the mechanical performances of SiC/SiC-based tubes. However, the retention rate of tensile strength was only 18.5% at 1200 °C.

文摘Based on the thermodynamic theory, an orthotropic damage constitutive model was developed to describe the nonlinear mechanical behavior of C/SiC composites. The different nonlinear kinematic and isotropic hardening functions were adopted to describe accurately the damage evolution processes. The damage variables were defined with the damaged modulus and the initial undamaged modulus on energy equivalence principle. The initial orthotropy and damage coupling were presented in the damage yield function. Tensile and in-plane shear loading and unloading tests were performed, and a good agreement between the model and the experimental results was achieved.

文摘Barium-strontium aluminosilicate （BSAS） and Si/BSAS coatings were fabricated on the surface of C/SiC composites via a two-step laser cladding process. The microstructure, mechanical properties, and the water vapor corrosion behavior of the samples were investigated. The BSAS coating was found to be tightly bonded to the substrate and only a few pores and microcracks were observed. The introduction of a silicon middle layer was revealed to reduce thermal stress and promote the healing of defects formed during the laser cladding process. To evaluate the corrosion resistance, the BSAS and Si/BSAS-coated C/SiC com- posites were exposed to an atmosphere of 50% H2O and 50% O2 at 1250 ℃. The resulting weight change and flexural strength were measured as a function of the corrosion time. The addition of the silicon middle layer below the BSAS top layer resulted in a better resistance to water vapor corrosion. Furthermore, the Si/BSAS-coated samples showed a lower weight loss and a smaller reduction in flexural strength than the BSAS-coated and the uncoated samples during water vapor corrosion. Thus, laser cladding is dem- onstrated to be an effective and feasible method to fabricate high-quality ceramic coatings on C/SiC composites. The introduction of a silicon middle layer can inhibit defect formation during the laser clad- ding process and protect the composite from water vapor corrosion.

文摘The grain density,Nv,in the solid state after solidification of AZ91/SiC composite is a function of maximum undercooling,ΔT,of a liquid alloy.This type of function depends on the characteristics of heterogeneous nucleation sites and number of SiC present in the alloy.The aim of this paper was selection of parameters for the model describing the relationship between the grain density of primary phase and undercooling.This model in connection with model of crystallisation,which is based on chemical elements diffusion and grain interface kinetics,can be used to predict casting quality and its microstructure.Nucleation models have parameters,which exact values are usually not known and sometimes even their physical meaning is under discussion.Those parameters can be obtained after mathematical analysis of the experimental data.The composites with 0,1,2,3 and 4wt.% of SiC particles were prepared.The AZ91 alloy was a matrix of the composite reinforcement SiC particles.This composite was cast to prepare four different thickness plates.They were taken from the region near to the thermocouple,to analyze the undercooling for different composites and thickness plates and its influence on the grain size.The microstructure and thermal analysis gave set of values that connect mass fraction of SiC particles,and undercooling with grain size.These values were used to approximate nucleation model adjustment parameters.Obtained model can be very useful in modelling composites microstructure.

文摘The creep properties of as-cast Mg-9Al-1Si alloy and Mg-9Al-1Si-1SiC composite were compared.The results show that Mg-9A1-lSi-lSiC composite performs a better creep resistance than that of Mg-9Al-1Si alloy at constant temperature and stress(473 K,70MPa).Besides,the creep behavior of Mg-9Al-1 Si-1SiC composite at various temperature from 448 K to 498 K and under stresses of 70-90 MPa were systematically investigated.The Mg-9Al-1 Si-1SiC composite exhibited a stress exponent from 5.5 to 6.9 and the creep activation energy fell within the range of 86-111 kJ/mol.The results showed that the creep mechanism of Mg-9Al-1Si-1SiC composite was mainly attributed to the effects of secondary phase strengthening mechanism and dislocation climb mechanism.

文摘The oxidation behavior of chemical vapor infiltration(CVI),molten silicon infiltration(MSI)and CVI+MSI C/SiC composites at 500-1 400℃was studied.The oxidation below 900℃increased successively for CVI,CVI+MSI and MSI composites.However,the oxidation of CVI composite above 1 000 ℃was much faster thanthat of MSI and CVI+MSI composites. As active carbon atoms produced by siliconization of fibers during MSI process were oxidized first and decreased initial oxidation temperature.The initial oxidation temperature of MSI,MSI+CVI and CVI composites was 526,552 and 710℃,respectively.New active carbon atoms were generated due to the breaking of 2D molecular chains during oxidation,so the activation energy of three C/SiC composites was decreased gradually at 500-800℃with oxidation process,exhibiting a self-catalytic characteristic.

文摘The development of efficient and quick method to prepare structure-function integrative C/SiC composites is always a major challenge in this feld.Herein,the thermal conductivity and bending strength of C/SiC composites were enhanced simultaneously via continuous high heat conductive channels constructed by continuous wave laser machining and pitch-based high thermal conductivity carbon fber in thickness direction.Results revealed that the thermal conductivity of the modifed C/SiC composites is three times higher than that of referential C/SiC composites due to its highly ordered heat conducive channel in the thickness direction.Importantly,the bending strength of modifed C/SiC composites increased to 457MPa.To better understand the enhance mechanism,the micro-structure for both the composites and heat conductive channel was systematically analyzed.The results demonstrated that the rivet effect of heat conductive channel and the formed two phases structure on the fbers dispersed partial of load and fnally enhanced the property of the composites.In a word,this method holds a nice applicable future in constructing structure-function integrative C/SiC composites.

文摘Two-dimensional plain-weave silicon carbide fiber fabric reinforced silicon carbide(2D-SiC/SiC)composites were molded by stacking method and densified through precursor infiltration and pyrolysis(PIP)process.SiC coating was deposited as the fiber/matrix interphase layer by chemical vapor deposition(CVD)technique.Fiber/matrix debonding and relatively long fiber pullouts were observed on the fracture surfaces.Additionally,the flexural strength and elastic modulus of the composites with and without fiber/matrix interphase layer were investigated using three-point bending test and single-edge notched beam test.The results show that the fiber fraction and the porosity of 2D-SiC/SiC composites with and without coating are 27.2%(volume fraction)and 11.1%,and 40.7%(volume fraction)and 7.5%,respectively.And the flexural strength and elastic modulus of 2D-SiC/SiC composites with and without coating are 363.3 MPa and 127.8 GPa,and 180.2 MPa and 97.2 GPa,respectively.With a proper thickness,the coating can effectively adjust the fiber/matrix interface,thus causing a dramatic increase in the mechanical properties of the composites.

文摘To make better use of 2.5D C/SiC composites in industry, it is necessary to understand the mechanical properties. A finite element model＇of 2.5D composites is established, by considering the fiber undulation and the porosity in 2.5D C/SiC composites. The fiber direction of warp is defined by cosine function to simulate the undulation of warp, and based on uniform strain assumption, analytical model of the elastic modulus and coefficient of thermal expansion （CTE） for 2.5D C/SiC composites were established by using dual- scale model. The result is found to correlate reasonably well with the predicted results and experimental results. The parametric study also demonstrates the effects of the fiber volume fraction, distance of warp yarn, and porosity in micro-scale on the mechanical properties and the coefficients of thermal expansion.
