Al2O3-SiC-C specimens were prepared using white fused corundum (3-1,≤1 and ≤0.044 mm),Al2O3-SiC composite powders (d50 ≤ 5 μm),α-Al2O3 micropowder (d50 =1.2 μm),SiC powder (≤ 0.044 mm),flake graphite (...Al2O3-SiC-C specimens were prepared using white fused corundum (3-1,≤1 and ≤0.044 mm),Al2O3-SiC composite powders (d50 ≤ 5 μm),α-Al2O3 micropowder (d50 =1.2 μm),SiC powder (≤ 0.044 mm),flake graphite (≤ 0.088 mm),Si powder (d50 =42.8 μm) and B4C powder (d50 ≤10 μm) as main starting materials,and thermosetting phenolic resin as binder.4%,8%,12% and 16% (in mass,the same hereinafter) of Al2O3-SiC composite powders substituted the same quantity of α-Al2O3 micropowder + SiC powder.Effects of composite powder additions on apparent porosity,bulk density,cold modulus of rupture,cold crushing strength,hot modulus of rupture (1 400 ℃),thermal shock resistance (1 100 ℃,water quenching) and oxidation resistance (1 000 and 1 500 ℃) of Al2O3-SiC -C specimens after 180 ℃ curing,1 000 ℃ 3 h carbon-embedded firing and 1 500 ℃ 3 h carbon-embedded firing,respectively,were researched.The results indicate that:(1) with the increase of Al2O3-SiC composite powder,cold strengths of the cured specimens decline,those of the specimens fired at 1 000 ℃ change a little,and those of the specimens fired at 1 500 ℃ change a little except for an obvious improvement of cold crushing strength ; (2) with the increase of Al2O3-SiC composite powder,hot modulus of rupture at 1 400 ℃ decreases and thermal shock resistance enhances significantly; (3) when Al2O3-SiC composite powder addition is 4%,the oxidation resistance at 1 500 ℃ is the best,and the reason may be the composite powder is finer and more active,which is beneficial to form dense mullite protective layer to retard the O2 diffusion into the specimens.展开更多
