Description

Aluminum-based silicon carbide composite material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field related to metal ceramic additive manufacturing, and particularly relates to an aluminum-based silicon carbide composite material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The SiC/Al composite material has high thermal conductivity, excellent mechanical property, low thermal expansion coefficient and other properties, and is an important material in the fields of aerospace, electronic packaging, thermal management and the like. With the development of high-performance components with more complex structures in critical equipment, higher requirements are also put on the preparation and processing technology of SiC/Al composite materials. In general, methods for preparing SiC/Al composite materials mainly include powder metallurgy, casting, and infiltration. However, these conventional methods face challenges such as low density, internal defects, difficulty in precisely controlling local composition and structure, etc., when manufacturing SiC/Al composite parts having complex structures. The SiC/Al composite material formed by the traditional method has great difficulty in subsequent processing, and the existing processing method of the aluminum-based silicon carbide structural member has high cutter requirements, high processing difficulty and high cost as described in the processing method of the aluminum-based silicon carbide structural member of the gyroscope for ZL201110256283.2 aerospace. Thus, it is difficult to meet the need for rapid manufacturing of personalized, refined, lightweight, complex SiC/Al composite components, which greatly limits the development and application of SiC/Al composites.
The method for preparing the aluminum-based silicon carbide by adopting the additive manufacturing technology at present mainly comprises two preparation methods of direct printing forming (laser powder bed melting, SLM) and indirect printing combined post-treatment forming (laser powder bed sintering, SLS). The aluminum powder and the silicon carbide particles are directly sintered, melted and molded, and the silicon carbide is molded into a preform by adding an organic or inorganic binder, and the preform is impregnated with aluminum liquid in a pressure or non-pressure mode after degreasing to obtain the final aluminum-based silicon carbide composite material. The SiC/Al composite material formed by direct printing is not excessively high in volume fraction (lower than 20%), and excessively high in silicon carbide content, so that excessive side reaction in the printing process can be caused, and the SiC/Al composite material is more in defects and even cannot be formed; for the indirectly formed SiC/Al composite material, the volume fraction of the SiC/Al composite material can be regulated and controlled between 30 and 70 percent, and the finished product has few defects, high precision and strong consistency.
Compared with direct printing forming, the method of combining indirect printing with post-treatment forming firstly solves two very key problems: (1) The use of an inorganic binder introduces more other phases, which will lead to a reduction in the silicon carbide content, and therefore an organic binder is used as binder for the formation of the silicon carbide preform. The use of the organic binder remains in the preform in the form of carbon residue after degreasing, and although carbon residue can be removed by pre-oxidation, the mechanical strength of the preform is drastically reduced or even pulverized while the carbon residue is removed by pre-oxidation. (2) The residual carbon can directly react with the aluminum liquid to generate brittle phase Al 4 C 3 The presence of such a phase can lead to a drastic decrease in the properties of the composite. On the other hand, free carbon residue and Al formed 4 C 3 The phase causes severe delamination (indicated as a in fig. 2).
