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.展开更多

The change in luminescence properties and the drift of chromaticity coordinates(CIE) of the(SrBaSm)Si2O2N2:(Eu^3+Ce^3+) blue-green phosphors and the color conversion glass ceramics were studied in the sintering temperature range from 600℃ to 800℃. The luminous intensity and internal quantum yield(QY) of the blue-green phosphors and glass ceramics decreased with the sintering temperature increasing. When the sintering temperature increased beyond 750℃, the phosphors and the color conversion glass ceramics almost had no peak in photoluminescence(PL) and excitation(PLE) spectra. The results showed that the blue-green phosphors had poor thermal stability at higher temperature. The lattice structure of the phosphors was destroyed by the glass matrix and the Ce^3+ in the phosphors was oxidized to Ce^4+, which further caused a decrease in luminescent properties of the color conversion glass ceramics.展开更多

The glassy phase is observed and confirmed directly by microdiffraction. EDAX analysis results show that the main function of the CeO2 lies in the glass phase which hardly contains any MgO. The cerium silicate galssy phase is good to wet Si3N4 and MgO-CeO2 is a most effective sintering aid for Si3N4. Excessive grain growth occurs at above 1850℃, which is harmful to the mechanical properties. Mi-crocracks and dislocations are observed in the excessive large grains.展开更多

The experiments were carried out in metallic neodymium and NdF3-LiF-Nd2O3 system, respectively. Corrosion temperature was 1100 ℃ and the holding time of corrosion experiments was 24 h. Corrosion products were analyzed by XRD and SEM, and corrosion behavior and corrosion mechanism of the experiments were studied. The results showed that Si3N4-SiC was corroded seriously in the above-mentioned two systems. A few of compounds were found on the surface of Si3N4-SiC, and surface structure of the Si3N4-SiC samples was loosened. The corrosion resistance of TiB2 was better than that of Si3N4-SiC. Oxidation resistance of TiB2 at high temperature should be enhanced.展开更多
