不同频率下C/C复合材料的往复式滑动摩擦特性

制备了两种具有不同基体炭类型的C/C复合材料,测试其与GCr钢在40 N时配副时的往复式摩擦行为.结果表明:随滑动频率的增加,两种试样的摩擦因数先增加,均在400 r/min时达到最大,之后除在1 200 r/min时略有反弹外,基本表现出线性下降趋势.在相同频率下,具有光滑层结构热解炭基体材料(SL)的摩擦因数低于另一种具有粗糙层结构热解炭和树脂炭混合基体(RL/RC)材料的.其中,RL/RC基体材料的摩擦因数在0.183～0.063之间;而SL基体材料的摩擦因数在0.150～0.059之间.随时间的延长,所有试样的摩擦因数均逐渐趋于稳定.Raman检测结果表明,随滑动频率增大,材料摩擦表面的微区石墨化度增加.但SEM形貌表明,随滑动频率增大,材料摩擦表面形貌由光滑变得粗糙,磨粒磨损加剧.     

炭/炭复合材料热膨胀性能的研究

利用热膨胀仪测定了炭/炭复合材料从室温到1300℃的热膨胀系数,研究了热处理温度、炭纤维取向和环境温度对炭/炭复合材料热膨胀性能的影响。结果表明由于热解炭是以层状的方式围绕炭纤维生长,所以其热膨胀各向异性,垂直于纤维方向的热膨胀大于平行于纤维方向的热膨胀。随着热处理温度的升高,炭/炭复合材料中具有乱层石墨结构的晶体有序度增加,石墨化度增大,石墨片层间的范德华作用力增强,热膨胀系数减小。随着环境温度的升高热膨胀系数先增大后减小,在1200℃有最大值。     

炭/炭复合材料航空刹车副的湿态摩擦性能

对两种不同的炭/炭复合材料湿态下的摩擦磨损性能进行对比分析。结果表明:具有粗糙层热解炭的炭/炭刹车副由于其晶格结构较为完善,生长组织择优取向度和各向异性度均高于含有光滑层结构热解炭的炭/炭刹车副。前者的石墨化度及可石墨化能力均大于后者,由于前者的表面缺陷较少,所吸附的水分子较少,因而在湿态下刹车时,其刹车力矩将很快恢复到正常干态刹车时的力矩水平,对环境的适应能力大于光滑层结构的炭/炭刹车副。     

不同基体炭结构的C/C复合材料摩擦表面特性和摩擦磨损机理

原位生长碳纳米管对炭/炭复合材料导热性能的影响

以炭纤维表面原位生长有碳纳米管(Carbon nanotubes,CNTs)的针刺毡体作为前驱体制备出生长有CNTs的炭/炭复合材料,并与在同样工艺条件下通过致密化最终热处理得到的纯炭/炭复合材料进行对比.结果表明,在密度几乎相同的情况下,生长有CNTs的炭/炭复合材料的室温Z轴热导率约为11.10 W/(m·K),几乎为纯炭/炭复合材料的室温Z轴热导率(6.28 W/(m·K))的2倍,其原因可能在于CNTs可以有效改善炭纤维和热解炭之间的界面特性,明显减少炭/炭复合材料中纤维和热解炭界面处周裂纹的出现,还可以诱导热解炭形成一种拥有更高导热率更易石墨化的粗糙结构.     

准三维C/C复合材料的层间剪切性能及其断裂机理

添加BN对光滑层热解炭结构的C/C复合材料摩擦性能的影响

通过粉末层铺法向全网胎炭纤维预制体中添加六方氮化硼粉末和化学气相沉积热解炭增密制备C/C-BN复合材料。在MM 1000摩擦试验机上对其摩擦磨损性能进行测试,并对摩擦表面进行光学形貌观察以及对材料的组织结构和磨屑进行SEM形貌观察。结果表明:与C/C复合材料相比,C/C-BN复合材料的线性磨损率降低了40%,质量磨损率降低了70%;摩擦表面中的六方BN在摩擦过程中始终保持稳定,BN的存在使光滑层热解炭结构的C/C复合材料的摩擦因数曲线变得平稳、波动小并且对刹车压力响应迅速,摩擦表面上形成了一层薄的摩擦膜。     

溶胶浸渍抗氧化涂层对C/C复合材料摩擦特性的影响

采用溶胶浸渍技术对4种C／C复合材料进行抗氧化处理。在M2000型摩擦实验机上测试了4种C／C材料的摩擦特性。结果表明：在相同载荷下，光滑层CVI（SL）的C／C材料浸渍后试样与未浸渍试样的摩擦因数值最接近：树脂炭（RC）的C／C材料中，浸渍后试样的摩擦因数均低于未浸渍的试样且相差最大；粗糙层CVI（RL）的C／C材料中，中高载荷下浸渍溶胶试样的摩擦因数低于未浸渍溶胶的试样：而具有粗糙层／光滑层／树脂炭（RL／SL／RC）的C／C材料中，中高载荷下浸渍溶胶后试样的摩擦因数变化比未浸渍试样的高。随载荷增加，SL炭材料未浸渍和己浸渍试样摩擦因数的变化幅度均最低，RC炭材料未浸渍试样和己浸渍试样的摩擦因数变化幅度最大，RL／SL／RC、RL结构的试样是否浸渍溶胶对其摩擦因数的影响无明显规律。石墨化度高的材料的摩擦行为受浸渍溶胶的影响高于石墨化度低的材料。     

预制体对C／C复合材料热膨胀系数的影响

以天然气为前驱气体,整体碳毡和2D针刺碳毡为预制体,采用热悌度化学气相渗积技术制备了两种C／C复合材料,其表观密度均为1．74g／cm^3。借助光学显微镜和扫描电子显微镜观察了热解碳基体的生长特征和微观形貌,采用热膨胀仪测量了两种材料的热膨胀系数（CTE）,研究了由不同预制体增强C／C复合材料的CTE,解释了造成材料不同方向CTE差异的主要原因。结果表明,随着温度升高,材料A和B的CTE是逐渐升高的,且Z向CTE值均大于XY向。当两种材料在Z向的纤维体积分数接近时,随着XY方向纤维体积分数增大,材料在Z向的CTE增大,在XY向的CTE降低,两种材料存XY和Z向的CTE旱如下分布：αB—z〉dAz〉αA—xy〉αBxY-C／C复合材料的CTE主要取决于纤维体积分数和排市、碳基体及材料中的孔隙分布情况,前者起决定作用。     

Numerical simulation on thermal expansion coefficient of 3D braided C/C composites简

To effectively get the thermal expansion coefficient(CTE) of three-dimensional(3D) braided C/C composites and study the variations, a VC?? program with graphical user interfaces was obtained, based on the yarn unit model and numerical analysis. With the limited basic properties of carbon fibers and carbon matrix, CTE of 3D braided C/C composites is obtained at 85 °C. The deviation between the simulated and experimental axial CTE of 3D braided C/C composites is no more than 11 %. The effects of different parameters(including the braiding angle of 3D braided preform, the fiber volume fraction and the porosity of 3D braided C/C composites, and the elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio and CTEs of carbon fibers and carbon matrix) were analyzed with the program. The results show that the axial CTE of C/C composites decreases with the increase of the braiding angle, the fiber volume fraction, and the porosity of 3D braided C/C composites. The transverse elastic modulus of carbon fibers has the greatest effect on the axial CTE among the studied mechanical parameters, followed by the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio of carbon matrix.     

热梯度CVI C/C材料的结构与性能

以炭纤维整体毡为预制体，采用热梯度CVI工艺制备了两种不同结构基体炭的C／C材料，即RL结构和SL结构材料。采用光学金相仪，X射线衍射仪，硬度计，激光导热仪等设备研究了沉积态和热处理态C／C材料的显微结构及热物理性能。对比研究了两种结构材料的力学性能及摩擦摩损性能。结果表明：当密度超过一定值后，密度对C／C材料的力学性能和摩擦性能的影响远不如CVD炭结构的影响大；不管是沉积态还是热处理态，RL结构材料的刹车性能曲线明显优于SL结构材料的刹车性能曲线，这意味着CVD炭的微观结构不同是造成C／C材料摩擦性能差异的根本原因。     

高密度预制体制备炭/炭复合材料的弯曲力学性能与断裂机制

以丙烯作为碳源,氮气作为载气,采用初始密度为0.94g/cm3三维正交PAN基12K炭纤维预制体,利用自制的快速CVI炉制备基体热解炭结构为带状结构的C/C复合材料。力学性能测试结果表明,材料的弯曲断裂特征与制备过程中受到的高温热处理次数有关。从载荷-位移曲线来看,当C/C复合材料经过两次热处理时,C/C复合材料呈明显假塑性断裂特征。当C/C复合材料经过三次热处理时,载荷-位移曲线趋于稳定平滑,抗弯强度降低。从C/C复合材料断面的SEM图可以观察到材料断裂可以分为层间断裂和层内断裂,而层内断裂又因热解炭填充密度变化呈明显的分区断裂。由于热解炭和纤维含量在C/C复合材料中分布的差异,材料在不同的区域表现出不同的断裂特征,从而使得材料具备良好的弯曲强度同时具有一定的韧性特征。     

Densification Behavior and Performances of C/C Composites Derived from Various Carbon Matrix Precursors

Three types of carbon/carbon (C/C) composites were manufactured by densifying the needled carbon fiber preform through resin and pitch impregnation/carbonization repeatedly, as well as propylene pyrolysis by chemical vapor infiltration plus carbonization after the resin impregnation/carbonization. The densification behavior and performances (involving electric, thermal, and mechanical properties, as well as impurity) of the C/C composites were investigated systematically. The results show that besides the processing and testing conditions, the electric resistivity, thermal conductivity (TC), coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), strength, and fracture, as well as impurity content and composition of the C/C composites were closely related to the fiber orientation, interfacial bonding between carbon fiber and carbon matrix, material characteristics of the three precursors and the resulting matrix carbons. In particular, the resin-carbon matrix C/C (RC/C) composites had the highest electric resistivity, tensile, and flexural strength, as well as impurity content. Meanwhile, the pitch-carbon matrix C/C (PC/C) composites possessed the highest TC and CTE in the parallel and vertical direction. And most of the performances of pyro-carbon/resin carbon matrix C/C composites were between those of the RC/C and PC/C composites except the impurity content.     

Influence of load on sliding tribology of C/C composite with 40Cr steel couple coated by Cr

With the 40Cr steel couple coated by Cr, the sliding tribology behavior of two kinds of C/C composites with different matrix was tested using a M2000 wear tester. The results show that with the increasing of load, the friction coefficients of the composite with resin carbon matrix（RC） decrease quickly from 0.156 under 60 N to 0.123 under 150 N, while those of the composite with rough lamination/smooth lamination/resin carbon （RL/SL/RC） change only between 0.122 and 0.101. The wear volume loss of the two composites increases except for under 100 N. The SEM morphology shows that with the increasing of load, the worn surface of the composite with RC becomes more and more integrated while the size of the debris becomes less and less. The Raman spectrum shows that the graphitization on the worn surface of the fibers draws down after 100 N, the graphitization of the boundary between the fiber and the matrix carbon rises up to 150 N, but the graphitization of the matrix carbon draws down all the while. With the increasing of load, the graphitization on the worn surface of all the worn areas becomes closer and closer, which indicates the worn surface of the different component has the similar friction ability. The composites with RL/SL/RC have better tribological characteristic than the composite with RC.     

Microstructure and mechanical properties of 3D fine-woven punctured C/C composites with PyC/SiC/TaC interphases

The 3D fine-woven punctured C/C-(P_yC/SiC/TaC) composites, composed of P_yC/SiC/TaC interphases and pyrocarbon (PyC) matrix, were synthesized by isothermal chemical vapor infiltration (ICVI) methods. The alternating layers and the structure of these composites were examined by polarized light microscopy (PLM), X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It is found that the P_yC matrix has rough laminar (RL) structure, the TaC layer has NaCl-type cubic structure, and the SiC layer has few wurtzite type 10H-SiC besides β-SiC structure. The effects of fiber coating and the bulk density on the tensile and flexural properties of composites along X or Y and Z direction were investigated. It is shown that fiber coated 3D woven punctured C/C composites have good tensile and flexural strength, and the maximum of flexural strength is 375 MPa in X or Y direction at density of 1.89 g/cm³, which is about three times higher than that of samples without TaC/SiC fiber coating. The flexural strength and bending strength increase with increasing the density of the composites. The analysis of fracture surfaces reveals that fibers and fiber bundles are pulled out in composites, indicating that the composite exhibits a non-linear failure behavior through propagation and deflection of the cracks.
