Description

Zirconium carbide-silicon carbide composite powder material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to a zirconium carbide-silicon carbide composite powder material and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of inorganic non-metallic materials.
Background
The carbide ceramic is an excellent structural ceramic material, can still maintain good mechanical properties under extreme conditions of high temperature, corrosion, irradiation and the like, and can be applied to the fields of aerospace, nuclear reactor, hard alloy processing, high-temperature structural parts and the like. The single-phase carbide has low fracture toughness and poor high-temperature oxidation resistance, and the application of the single-phase carbide is greatly limited. In recent years, based on the characteristics of two-phase materials, the performance addition and complementation of composite materials are realized, and the method becomes a research hotspot. The zirconium carbide-silicon carbide composite material can integrate excellent high temperature resistance and radiation resistance of ZrC and high temperature oxidation resistance of SiC, and the mechanical property of the composite material can be further improved by regulating and controlling the growth of crystal grains through two-phase compounding. The sintering activity of the carbide is poor due to the characteristics of strong covalent bond, low self-diffusion coefficient and the like of the carbide. The zirconium carbide-silicon carbide superfine composite powder has high surface activity, can effectively reduce sintering temperature and promote densification, simultaneously realizes uniform distribution of two phases, obtains a composite material with excellent microstructure and performance, and has obtained extensive attention of researchers.
The existing method for preparing the composite ceramic powder mainly comprises the following steps: (1) the solid phase mixing method is to directly grind and mix the carbide through mechanical mixing, or to mechanically mix the corresponding oxide/metal simple substance and the carbon simple substance raw material and then perform high temperature solid phase reaction, for example, in patent CN 103288454A, zirconium salt, silicon powder and phenolic resin are ball-milled and mixed, and heat treatment is performed at 1500-1800 ℃, so as to prepare the zirconium carbide-silicon carbide composite powder with the particle size of about 50 μm. The method is simple, but the two-phase components are difficult to be uniformly mixed, the reaction temperature is high, the obtained powder is easy to agglomerate and agglomerate, and the morphology and the particle size distribution are difficult to control. (2) A liquid-phase precursor method for preparing carbide composite material includes dissolving organic zirconium and organic silane compound in organic solvent, polymerizing, high-temp cracking, dissolving zirconocene dichloride, halogenated silane monomer and catalyst in organic solvent, filtering, concentrating, and high-temp ceramizing at 2500 deg.C. The method has the advantages of uniform mixing, high raw material cost, easy environmental pollution of a large amount of organic solvents, non-independence of a silicon source and a carbon source, and difficult adjustment of the Zr/Si ratio of the compound, thereby easily causing carbon residue. (3) The sol-gel method adopts metal alkoxide, adds surfactant and the like, slowly hydrolyzes to form uniform gel, and obtains the nano-scale powder material after heat treatment. For example, Tao Cai and the like adopt zirconium tetrabutoxide and polymethyl silicon acetylene silane as raw materials to obtain gel, and then react at 1700 ℃ to obtain zirconium carbide-silicon carbide composite powder with the particle size of 100-300 nm and uniformly distributed components. The method has the advantages of complex raw material components, high cost, long aging time and difficult process control, and limits the industrial large-scale application of the method.
