Description

Method for preparing whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite by dynamic pressure flash firing
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of ceramic material preparation, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite material by dynamic pressure flash firing.
Background
Whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite is an effective measure for improving the brittleness of ceramics, and is always a research hot spot in the direction of high-performance structural ceramics at home and abroad. However, since the rigid ceramic whisker hardly contracts during sintering, when the ceramic matrix contracts, a circumferential tensile stress and a radial tensile stress are generated around the ceramic whisker, which hinders the ceramic matrix from further contracting, and the densification of the composite material is difficult. Therefore, development of a new method for solving the problem that whisker toughened composite materials are difficult to sinter is urgently needed.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, the invention aims to provide a method for preparing a whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite material by dynamic pressure flash firing, which solves the problems that the whisker toughened composite material is difficult to sinter and the composite material is difficult to densify.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows:
a method for preparing whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite by dynamic pressure flash firing comprises the following steps:
1) Uniformly mixing the whisker and ceramic powder to prepare ceramic mixed powder;
2) Pressing the ceramic mixed powder into a ceramic blank;
3) Placing the ceramic blank in a furnace body, heating the furnace body to a certain temperature, applying an electric field to the ceramic blank for flash firing, applying oscillating pressure to the upper end and the lower end of the ceramic blank while carrying out flash firing, and carrying out dynamic pressure-assisted flash firing, forging and sintering;
4) And after the heat preservation is carried out for a certain time, stopping the oscillation pressure and the electric field, and cooling to obtain the whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite.
The furnace body in the step 3) is heated to 500-1200 ℃; the electric field strength is 50-300V/cm, and the current density is 60-200 mA/mm 2
The median value of the oscillating pressure in the step 3) is calculated to be 10-150 MPa according to the area, the amplitude value is 5-50 MPa, the frequency value is 0.5-20 Hz, and the power value of the product of the amplitude value and the frequency is not more than 200.
The application of the oscillating pressure in step 3) may be performed before or after the initiation of the flash, but not after the flash stabilization phase.
The specific steps of the step 1) are as follows: the whisker and the ceramic powder are dispersed in water by ultrasonic to obtain ceramic slurry, and the ceramic slurry is subjected to rotary evaporation, grinding and sieving to obtain ceramic mixed powder, wherein the particle size of the ceramic mixed powder is 150 microns.
The whisker comprises: the proportion of the ceramic powder is 5-30%: 70-95% of deionized water, wherein the amount of deionized water is larger than the total amount of whisker and ceramic powder; the ultrasonic dispersion time is 6-48 h.
The whisker is SiC whisker or Al 2 O 3 Whisker, zrO 2 One of the whiskers; the ceramic powder is ZrO 2 Powder, al 2 O 3 One of the powders.
The heat preservation time in the step 4) is 5-30 min.
In the step 2), when the ceramic body is pressed, the pressed ceramic body can be in various shapes, such as dog bone shape, cylindrical shape, strip shape and the like, and the shape can be selected according to requirements.
Step 3) after an electric field is applied to the ceramic blank, the current of the blank slowly rises to a set value, then the voltage is converted into current control by voltage control, the voltage rapidly drops, a flash stable stage is entered, the state is completely flash-burned, and the heat is preserved under the preset current density.
The whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite material prepared by the method of the invention. The density range of the composite material is 96% -99.8%, and the hardness is 17.5-23.5GPa.
When an electric field and oscillation pressure are applied to the ceramic blank, the electric field can be simultaneously applied to the upper and lower pressure heads at the upper and lower ends of the ceramic blank, and the electric field is connected to the upper and lower pressure heads in two stages; the oscillating pressure can be applied to the upper end and the lower end of the ceramic body through the up-down pressure, and the electric field can be applied to other directions of the ceramic body, such as the left-right direction, and the specific electric field direction can be adjusted according to the shape of the ceramic body without fixing limitation.
In the present invention, it is well known that high strength structural ceramics are relatively brittle and have limited plastic deformability, requiring relatively high temperatures to effect deformation. The invention selects flash firing during preparation for about 3-30min, and can realize large-degree plastic deformation of the whisker toughened ceramic matrix composite material at a lower temperature, thereby realizing low-temperature rapid sintering, rapid material transmission and low-temperature superplastic deformation of the material. The problem of difficult sintering is overcome by simple flash firing, but the problem of difficult densification of the material is still not overcome.
The invention applies pressure while the flash burning is carried out, the pressure is not constant pressure but oscillation pressure, and the progress is not smooth while the oscillation pressure is applied, because the result of the flash burning directly influences whether the oscillation pressure can be applied or not. When the defects generated in the material by the flash are too small, rapid deformation and densification cannot be achieved even if an oscillating pressure is applied. When the flash burns to cause too many defects in the material, the defects are aggregated to cause formation of microscopic pores, and at this time, the pores cannot be removed even if an oscillation pressure is applied, thereby greatly reducing the performance of the material.
In the sintering process, the coupling of a thermal field, a dynamic force field and an electric field is adopted, the sintering temperature is reduced under the coupling effect, the densification rate is accelerated, and finally the ceramic matrix composite material with small grain size, few internal defects, stable whisker structure and high compactness is prepared.

Example 8: too small an electric field strength of 30

Example 12:
unlike example 1, the median magnitude of the oscillation pressure was calculated from the area at 5MPa, the amplitude at 2MPa, and the frequency at 1Hz.
Through detection, the density of the final sample reaches 96.8%, and the hardness reaches 15GPa.
Example 13:
the difference from example 1 is that the zirconia powder was replaced with SiC powder.
It was found that under the same conditions no flash burn occurred and no change in density occurred, indicating that the process of the present invention is not applicable to all raw material types.
As shown in fig. 1, the scanned graph of the whisker toughened ceramic sample prepared in example 1 has no air holes, which proves that the sample density measured under the condition is higher; as seen in fig. 2, the grain size is 230nm. As can be seen from fig. 3, the whisker toughened ceramic sample prepared in example 5 has pores in a low-pass scan, which demonstrates that the sample obtained under this condition is less dense, and as can be seen from fig. 4, the grain size is 350nm. From fig. 5, it can also be seen that pores still exist in the scanned graph of the whisker toughened ceramic sample prepared in example 6, but the number of pores is smaller than that in fig. 3, which proves that the compactness is improved, but still smaller than that in fig. 1. Thus demonstrating the effectiveness of flash combined oscillation forging.
As can be seen from the above experiments, when the sintering process is completed at the temperature corresponding to the blackbody radiation without applying flash, the required furnace temperature can be found to be greatly increased, and the final sample has very small relative density and very low hardness within the same time of heat preservation.
When the oscillating pressure is not applied and a constant pressure is used, it can be seen that the density of the synthesized sample is lower than that of the synthesized sample under the oscillating pressure in the same time, because the oscillating pressure accelerates the densification process, that is, the sliding process of grain boundaries or the plastic deformation process. This variation is similar to the fatigue process in metallic materials, and has a great promoting effect on the improvement of the compactness and the performance.
When the electric field strength is too high, the power in the process of flash burning is increased, so that too high heat is generated at the contact position of the electrode and the sample, and the sample is damaged. Thereby reducing the compactness and performance of the sample. When the electric field strength is too small, the initial condition of the flash cannot be reached, and the flash cannot occur at this time, so that the density of the sample cannot be improved.
When the current density is too high, vacancies and defects excited by the current are greatly increased, and part of vacancies are accumulated in the interior of the crystal grains to generate air holes, which cannot be removed by plastic deformation or grain boundary sliding, so that the compactness and performance of the sample are reduced. When the current density is too small, the density brought by flash burning is low, and the vacancies excited by the current are small, at the moment, even if oscillation pressure is applied, the densification and deformation processes are controlled by diffusion, and in the densification and deformation processes of diffusion control, the oscillation force cannot play a promoting role, and finally, the density and deformation degree of the sample are mostly brought by flash burning, so the density and performance are low.
When the median value of the oscillation pressure is too small, dislocation or grain boundary slip caused by flash firing cannot be activated, and at this time, densification and deformation processes are still mainly controlled by diffusion, so that the oscillation pressure has little influence on densification and deformation, and the performance is low.
When the median value of the oscillation pressure is too large, the material is deformed to a large extent, and the defects excited by the current are insufficient to regulate the strain caused by the large pressure, a large number of air holes are generated in the sample to adapt to the large deformation, so that the density and the performance of the final sample are reduced.
In the invention, the compactness is tested by an Archimedes drainage method, and the hardness is tested by a microhardness tester.
Finally, it is noted that the above-mentioned embodiments are merely for illustrating the technical solution of the present invention, and that other modifications and equivalents thereof by those skilled in the art should be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
