摘要
Bulk Si_2 BC_3 N ceramics were reinforced with SiC coated multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs). The phase compositions, mechanical properties, and thermal shock resistance, as well as the oxidation resistance of the designed Si_2 BC_3 N ceramics were comparatively investigated. The results show that nano SiC coating can be formed on MWCNTs through pyrolyzing polysilazane, which improves the oxidation resistance of MWCNTs. A stronger chemical bonding is formed between the SiC coated MWCNTs and SiC particles, contributing to improved flexural strength(532.1 MPa) and fracture toughness(6.66 MPa m1/2). Besides, the 2 vol% SiC coated MWCNTs reinforced Si_2 BC_3 N ceramics maintains much higher residual strength(193.0 MPa) after thermal shock test at 1000 ℃.The enhanced properties should be attributed to:(1) the breaking of MWCNTs and the debonding between MWCNTs and SiC interfaces, which leads to more energy dissipation;(2) the rough surfaces of SiC coated MWCNTs increase the adhesion strength during the "pull out" of MWCNTs.
