The phases of ZrO_2 in composites were examined by X-ray diffraction. The microstructure of Al_2O_3/3Y-TZP composites was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) respectively. The X-ray analysis reveals that ZrO_2 of both surface and fracture surface is mainly t-ZrO_2. The SEM image shows that there are some intragranular particles in large granulars. The fracture toughness K_ 1c of Al_2O_3/70%ZrO_2(3%Y_2O_3(mole fraction)) composite tested by single-edge notched bending is 13.5 MPa·m 1/2. Being toughened by the ferroelastic domain switching and the intragranular microstructure explains high toughness of the composite.展开更多

The experiments were performed respectively at: (i) fixed stress and changed temperatures, and (ii) fixed temperature and changed stresses. A creep resistance parameter that represents the probability of creep deformation in a given condition was defined as a function of both applied stress and the threshold stress, varying in a range from 0 to 1. Elastic modulus at high temperatures was measured through comparing relative slopes of loading curves in cyclic loading curve. The fracture toughness measured by SENB method showed a stable value in the range of 25-1000℃, but over 1000℃, it declined abruptly from -6.7MPa·m1/2 to -2.0MPa·m1/2 at 1200℃.展开更多

After preparing and compacting of the powders under pressure of 200 MPa, the samples were sintered at temperatures of 1370°C, 1410°C and 1450°C for 1 hour. Microstructural examinations by SEM show that the average grain size obtained for Cr3C2 + VC added alloys reduced 50 percent and also grain size distribution was narrower compared to those samples without grain growth inhibitors. Furthermore, co-addition of Cr3C2 and VC rise to a higher Vickers hardness and fracture toughness of the sintered alloys at 1410°C.展开更多
