Since reactivity is the main problem in sintering of mironized powders the starting ZrO2 powder is selected in nano size to see whether the reaction improves. The XRD pattern indicates that W-ZrC composite has been formed, although some unreacted compounds still exist and some unwanted components have been created. In the case of using nano powders the amount of unreacted WC and ZrO2 phases and unwanted W2C phase reduces and the reaction progresses better. Additionally by using nano powders the reaction progressed and the mechanical proprieties including density, hardness, Elastic modulus and Flexural strength improved.展开更多

Both the C/...C/C-ZrC-SiC composites with different ZrC-SiC contents were fabricated by precursor infiltration and pyrolysis. The effect of ceramic content on the microstructure and ablation resistance was investigated. Both the C/C-SiC and C/C-ZrC-SiC composites exhibited good ablation resistance under the plasma flame above 2300℃. Withtheincreaseof ZrC content, a continuous oxide layer and a solid Zr-Si-O mesophase were formed during the ablation. And the structure of the formed oxides layer closely linked with the contents of ZrC-SiC ceramics. The solid ZrO2-ZrC and Zr-Si-O mesophase could increase the viscosity of SiO2 moderately and improve the anti-scouring ability. The continuous SiO2-ZrO2-ZrC-SiC layer would serve as a thermal and oxygen barrier for preventing the substratefrom further ablation. The C/C-ZrC-SiC composites with 27.2%ZrC and 7.56%SiC shows superior ablation resistance, and the mass and linear ablation rates are-3.51 mg/s and-1.88 μm/s, respectively.展开更多

The results show that W and SiC contents in the coatings increase with the increase of RE in the bath.

The results showed that the composite coating containing 5%~14%RE, 4%~7%SiC, 12%~15%P and 5%~6%W was obtained by use of appropriate bath composition and plating conditions. The as deposited composite coating is amorphous and it becomes mixture when the temperature is raised from 200 ℃ to 400 ℃. However, the composite coating is crystal when the temperature is over 400 ℃. Scanning electron microscopy indicates that the heat treatment temperature has no effect on the surface morphologies of the RE Ni W P SiC composite coating. This is to say that the composite coating has a better heat stability of microstructure and high temperature oxidation.展开更多

The composites were prepared by vacuum hot pressing, and the microstructure and mechanical properties of the composites were investigated. Experimental results show that the grain size of the TiC/W composites is reduced by TiC particles. When 0.5 wt.% La2O3 is added to the composites, the grain size is reduced further. According to TEM analysis, La2O3 can alleviate the aggregation of TiC particles. With La2O3 addition, the relative density of the TiC/W composites can be improved from 95.1% to 96.5%. The hardness and elastic modulus of the TiC/W + 0.5 wt.% La2O3 composite are little improved, but the flexural strength and the fracture toughness increase to 796 MPa and 10.07 MPa·m^1/2 respectively, which are higher than those of the TiC/W composites.展开更多
