Al-filler-loaded polymethylsiloxane (PMS) was pyrolysed in air atmosphere at temperatures 400–1700 °C. The effect of the Al
amount added to the PMS on phase development, densification behaviour and microstructure evolution was studied by simultaneous
thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and electron probe microanalysis. The Al/PMS reaction route
is complex producing Si, SiO2 (amorphous and cristobalite), Al2O3 (γ-, ι- and α-Al2O3), Al2OC, Al4O4C, Al4SiC4, and AlN, depending on the ratio of Al/PMS in the initial mixture. Increasing the Al content (high Al/PMS ratio) reduces
the amount of voids and porosities after PMS degradation. The voids and porosities provide access for the oxygen atmosphere
into the inner structure to oxidise the Al particles, Si or SiC and also as channels for the PMS degradation products to escape.
Mullite formation was identified in sample containing >73 wt% Al at temperature as low as 1400 °C. 相似文献

The (AlN, TiN)-Al2O3 composites were fabricated by reaction sintering powder mixtures containing 10-30 wt.% (Al, Ti)-Al2O3 at 1420-1520°C in nitrogen. It was found that the densification and mechanical properties of the sintered composites depended strongly on the Al, Ti contents of the starting powder and hot pressing parameters. Reaction sintering 20 wt.% (Al, Ti)-Al2O3 powder in nitrogen in 1520°C for 30 min yields (AlN, TiN)-Al2O3 composites with the best mechanical properties, with a hardness HRA of 94.1, bending strength of 687 MPa, and fracture toughness of 6.5 MPa m1/2. Microstructure analysis indicated that TiN is present as well dispersed particulates within a matrix of Al2O3. The AlN identified by XRD was not directly observed, but probably resides at the Al2O3 grain boundary. The fracture mode of these composites was observed to be transgranular. 相似文献

Wettability is the most significant phenomenon in SiC liquid phase sintering. The wetting of Y2O3/Al2O3 and Sm2O3/Al2O3 on SiC was analysed by the “Sessil drop” method. The wetting of liquid on solid during liquid phase sintering is very important. The behaviour of the additive on the SiC plate was observed using an imaging system with a CCD camera, and the contact angle measurements were analysed by Qwin Leica software. The samples were cut transversally and characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray spectrometry (SEM/EDS). The wetting was found to be strongly influenced by the temperature; the SiC/additive contact angle decreased with increasing temperature. The YA and SA additives presented low contact angle values, indicating their good wetting on SiC in the argon atmosphere. The contact angle could not be measured when the test was performed in the nitrogen atmosphere because bubbles formed in the liquid during the test. The best atmosphere for this sintering was found to be argon, which allows uniform spreading. 相似文献

The tensile properties and microstructures of AA6061/Al2O3p composites fabricated by the pressureless infiltration method under a nitrogen atmosphere were examined. Since the spontaneous infiltration of molten metal into elemental powders bed as well as alloy powders bed occurred at 700°C for 1 hour under a nitrogen atmosphere, it was possible to fabricate 6061 Al matrix composite reinforced with Al2O3p irrespective of the type of metal powders. Both MgAl2O4 and MgO were formed at interfaces between Al2O3 and the matrix. In addition, MgAl2O4 was formed at within the matrix by in situ reaction during composite fabrication. Fine AlN was formed by in situ reaction in both composites. A significant strengthening in the composites occurred due to the formation ofin situ AlN particle and addition of Al2O3 particles, as compared to the commercial alloy, while tensile properties in the both elemental and alloy powders composites showed similar trend. 相似文献

AlN-Cu metal matrix composites containing AlN volume fractions between 0.1 and 0.5 were fabricated firstly by liquid phase sintering of AlN using Y2O3 as a sintering aid and then by hot pressing the powder mixtures of sintered AlN and Cu at 1050°C with a pressure of 40 MPa under flowing nitrogen. With Y2O3 additions of 1.5 to 10 wt%, the densification of AlN could be achieved by liquid phase sintering at 1900°C for 3 h and subsequently slow cooling. The sintered AlN showed a maximum thermal conductivity of 166 W/m/K at a Y2O3 level of 6 wt%. Dense AlN-Cu composites with AlN contents up to 40 vol% were achieved by hot pressing. The thermal conductivity and the coefficient of the thermal expansion (CTE) of the composites decreased with increasing AlN volume fractions, giving typical values of 235 W/m/K and 12.6 × 10–6/K at an AlN content of 40 vol%. 相似文献

The atomic structure of AlN/Al2O3 interface fabricated by pulsed laser deposition is characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM)
combined with systematic multi-slice HRTEM image simulations. It is found that the AlN film deposited on a (0001) Al2O3 substrate grows epitaxially with the orientation relationship of (0001)AlN//(0001) Al2O3 and [
]AlN//[
]Al2O3, with an atomically sharp interface. The observed interface showed best correspondence with the rigid structural model that
AlN is terminated by Al at the interface, while the Al2O3 substrate is terminated by O. Detailed structural analysis indicates that Al sites at the interface are coordinated by both
oxygen and nitrogen in this model, with similar coordination environment in AlN. This favored coordination state at the interface
may stabilize the AlN/Al2O3 interface. 相似文献

In the process of low-temperature sintering of AlN ceramics, the reaction of the sintering aids YF3 and CaF2 with superficial Al2O3, inherently contained in AlN lattice, results in formation of liquid phase. Nevertheless, the uniformly dispersed liquid phase is prone to migrate from the bulk to the surface of the samples, opposing densification. The analysis of the experimental results indicates that fresh liquid phase can continuously arrive from the bulk to the surface due to chemical reactions and crystallization which occur at the surface as well as wettalibilty and capillarity phenomena. The surface is depleted of liquid phase since the latter is consumed due crystallization and carbothermal reduction reactions with the elements of the atmosphere of the furnace N2 and C, resulting in formation of a dense layer of crystals of Al2Y4O9, CaYAl3O7 and Y2O3, grown perpendicularly to the surface. The chemical and structural features of this newly formed crystalline surface layer generate a significant difference of the wetting regimes and the capillary forces between the surface and the bulk, favouring pumping of the liquid from the bulk to the surface. 相似文献

Chemical reactions to increase thermal conductivity by decreasing oxygen contents during AlN sintering with an Y2O3 additive in a reducing nitrogen atmosphere with carbon were investigated. They were: Al2O3 + N2 + 3CO ⇋ 2AlN + 3CO2, Al2Y4O9 + N2 + 3CO ⇋ 2AlN + 2Y2O3 + 3CO2 and Y2O3 + N2 + 3CO ⇋ 2YN + 3CO2. Some of the CO2 gas reduced to CO gas in the presence of carbon by a chemical reaction: CO2 + C ⇋ 2CO. These reactions were confirmed by examining oxygen contents, the grain boundary phases of the sintered AlN, and
the trapped CO and CO2 gases in the sintered bodies. These reducing reactions proceed with increasing sintering temperature and periods, and hence
the thermal conductivity is increased. 相似文献

AlN and graphite disks were successfully joined using a polymer plasticized ceramic tape as the interlayer by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The tape contains either composite powders of AlN and graphite or AlN powders without graphite. Both tapes contained 5 mass% Y2O3 as the sintering aid of AlN. The joining was carried out at 1700–1900 °C and 30 MPa for 5 min. No other reaction phase except for Al2Y4O9 was identified in the joints. The maximum tensile strength of the joints was obtained when the AlN–graphite composite interlayer tape was used. The joining mechanism is attributed not to the chemical bonding, but to the physical bonding of the Al2Y4O9 phase, which is solidified from the molten Al–Y–O squeezing into the porous graphite under pressure during SPS. 相似文献

AbstractDense aluminium nitride ceramics were prepared by spark plasma sintering at a lower sintering temperature of 1700°C with Y2O3, Sm2O3 and Dy2O3 as sintering additives respectively. The effects of three kinds of sintering additives on the phase composition, microstructure and thermal conductivity of AlN ceramics were investigated. The results showed that those sintering additives not only facilitated the densification via the liquid phase sintering mechanism, but also improved thermal conductivity by decreasing oxygen impurity. Sm2O3 could effectively improve thermal conductivity of AlN ceramics compared with Y2O3 and Dy2O3. Observation by scanning electron microscopy showed that AlN ceramics prepared by spark plasma sintering method manifested quite homogeneous microstructures, but AlN grain sizes and shapes and location of secondary phases varied with the sintering additives. The thermal conductivity of AlN ceramics was mainly affected by the additives through their effects on the growth of AlN grain and the location of secondary phases. 相似文献

Wettability is the most important phenomenon in SiC liquid phase sintering. This paper discusses the ceramic–ceramic wetting of E2O3/Al2O3 additives on SiC, where E2O3 is a mixture of rare earth oxide. A sphere-shaped sample of additive was put on a SiC plate and the set placed in a graphite resistance furnace and heated to the additive sphere melting point at a rate of 10 °C/min. The behaviour of the additive on the SiC plate was observed by means of an imaging system using a CCD camera, while the contact angle was measured and analyzed using QWin Leica software. The tests were performed in argon or nitrogen atmospheres. The wettability curves displayed a fast decline and good spreading. The E2O3/Al2O3 system, which approached a eutectic composition when compared with the phase diagram of the Y2O3/Al2O3 system, displayed better spreading. Measurements of the contact angle could not be made when the test was conducted in a nitrogen atmosphere because of the bubbles that formed in the liquid during the test, damaging the interfacial zone between E2O3/Al2O3 and SiC. The results of these tests indicate that the best sintering atmosphere for this additive system is argon. 相似文献

SiC continuous fibre (15 vol%)/AlN composite was fabricated using a sintering additive of 4Ca(OH)2 · Al2O3 by hot-pressing at 1650 °C and 17.6 MPa in vacuum. Analytical transmission electron microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to investigate the microstructure of as-fabricated and crept SiC fibre/AlN composites. The room-temperature mechanical and high-temperature creep properties of the composite were investigated by four-point bending. The incorporation of SiC fibre into AlN matrix improved significantly the room-temperature mechanical properties. This improvement could result from the crack deflections around the SiC fibres. However, the incorporation degraded severely the high-temperature creep properties under oxidizing atmosphere. This could be attributed to the development of the pores and various oxides at the matrix grain boundary and matrix/fibre interface during creep test. 相似文献

Aluminium-matrix composites containing AlN, SiC or Al2O3 particles were fabricated by vacuum infiltration of liquid aluminium into a porous particulate preform under an argon pressure of up to 41 MPa. Al/AlN had similar tensile strengths and higher ductility compared to Al/SiC of similar reinforcement volume fractions at room temperature, but exhibited higher tensile strength arid higher ductility at 300–400 °C and at room temperature after heating at 600 °C for 10–20 days. The ductility of Al/AIN increased with increasing temperature from 22–400 °C, while that of Al/SiC did not change with temperature. At 400 °C, Al/AlN exhibited mainly ductile fracture, whereas Al/SiC exhibited brittle fracture due to particle decohesion. Moreover, Al/AlN exhibited greater resistance to compressive deformation at 525 °C than Al/SiC. The superior high-temperature resistance of Al/AlN is attributed to the lack of a reaction between aluminium and AlN, in contrast to the reaction between aluminium and SiC in Al/SiC. By using Al-20Si-5Mg rather than aluminium as the matrix, the reaction between aluminium and SiC was arrested, resulting in no change in the tensile properties after heating at 500 °C for 20 days. However, the use of Al-20Si-5Mg instead of aluminium as the matrix caused the strength and ductility to decrease by 30% and 70%, respectively, due to the brittleness of Al-20Si-5Mg. Therefore, the use of AIN instead of SiC as the reinforcement is a better way to avoid the filler-matrix reaction. Al/Al2O3 had lower room-temperature tensile strength and ductility compared to both Al/AlN and Al/SiC of similar reinforcement volume fractions, both before and after heating at 600 °C for 10–20 days. Al/Al2O3 exhibited brittle fracture even at room temperature, due to incomplete infiltration resulting from Al2O3 particle clustering. 相似文献

Hot-pressing was used to prepare a dense (97% relative density) cubic Al substituted Li7La3Zr2O12 material at temperatures lower than typically used for solid-state and/or liquid phase sintering. Electron microscopy analysis
revealed equiaxed grains, grain boundaries, and triple junctions free of amorphous and second phases and no Al segregation
at grain boundaries. These results suggest that Al2O3 and/or Al cannot act as a sintering aid by reducing grain boundary mobility. If Al2O3 acts as a sintering aid its main function is to enter the lattice as Al to increase the point defect concentration of the
slowest moving species. 相似文献

Aluminium-matrix composites were fabricated by liquid metal infiltration of porous particulate reinforcement preforms, using AlN, SiC and Al2O3 as the particles. The quality of the composites depended on the preform fabrication technology. In this work, this technology was developed for high-volume fraction (up to 75%) particulate preforms, which are more sensitive to the preform fabrication process than lower volume fraction whisker/fibre preforms as their porosity and pore size are much lower. The technology developed used an acid phosphate binder (with P/Al molar ratio=23) in the amount of 0.1 wt% of the preform, in contrast to the much larger binder amount used for whisker preforms. The preforms were made by filtration of a slurry consisting of the reinforcement particles, the binder and carrier (preferably acetone), and subsequent baking (preferably at 200 °C) for the purpose of drying. Baking in air at 500 °C instead of 200 °C caused the AlN preforms to oxidize, thereby decreasing the thermal conductivity of the resulting Al/AlN composites. The reinforcement-binder reactivity was larger for AlN than SiC, but this reactivity did not affect the composite properties due to the small binder amount used. The Al/AlN composites were superior to the Al/SiC composites in the thermal conductivity and tensile ductility. The Al/Al2O3 composites were the poorest due to Al2O3 particle clustering. 相似文献

Y-doped ultrafine AlN powders were synthesized by a carbothermal reduction nitridation (CRN) route from precursors of Al2O3, C and Y2O3 prepared by a sol–gel low temperature combustion technology. The Y dopant reacted with alumina and thus forming yttrium aluminate of AlYO3, Al3Y5O12 and Al2Y4O9, which formed a liquid at about 1400 °C and promoted the transformation of Al2O3 to AlN and the growth of AlN particles. Compared with the conventional solid CRN process, Y dopant reduced the synthesis temperature by 150 °C, and Al2O3 transformed to AlN completely at 1450 °C. The content of Y dopant had little effect on the synthesis temperature of AlN whereas it influenced the phase of Y compounds in the products. As the Y/Al molar ratio was in the range of 0.007648–0.022944, the particle sizes of Y-doped AlN powders synthesized at 1450 °C were 150–300 nm. 相似文献

The route for the fabrication of an Al2O3/Al co-continuous composite by reactive melt infiltration was investigated using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis and X-ray diffraction analysis. It was found that in the process of molten aluminium infiltration into the SiO2 preform, the chemical reaction of 3SiO2 + 4Al → 2Al2O3 + 3Si occurred at the infiltration front, and generated a transition zone containing a new type of continuous porosity about 100 μm in width. The reaction continued with further infiltration of molten aluminium alloy into this porosity which reacted with the residual SiO2 until all the SiO2 was transformed into Al2O3. A comparison was made between this route and that by direct infiltration of molten aluminium alloy into the open porosity of an Al2O3 preform. As a result of the increased wetting ability of the molten aluminium alloy by the chemical reaction, reactive melt infiltration took place at a higher rate for the SiO2 preform than that for the direct infiltration of the Al2O3 preform. A fracture surface examination demonstrated a toughening effect provided by the continuous aluminium alloy in the composite. 相似文献

High thermal conductive AlN ceramics doped with Y2O3 were produced by sintering the powders obtained after applying a carbon coating to the surface of AlN powder grains. During sintering at 1800°C for 1 hour, the carbon reacts with the surface of the AlN grains by carbothermal-reduction of Al2O3, and also with the Al2Y4O9 intermediate phase to form AlN, Y2O3 and CO. By adding 0.56 mass% of carbon, almost all the Al2Y4O9 is reacted and the thermal conductivity increases from 184 W/(m · K) to 224 W/(m · K). Further carbon addition decreases the thermal conductivity and also the final sintered density. 相似文献

Sintering behaviour and microstructure of Al2O3 ceramics without additives and with 0.02–0.25 mol% CaO + SiO2 (CaO/SiO2 = 1) were investigated. When Al2O3 bodies were sintered at 1400 °C, the sinterability and the grain size decreased as the content of CaO + Si2 increased. When Al2O3 ceramics with 0.05 – 0.25 mol% CaO + SiO2 were sintered at higher sintering temperature, both CaO and SiO2 reacted with Al2O3 to produce the liquid phase along grain boundaries, and exaggerated platelet Al2O3 grains, with an aspect ratio of about 4.5, were formed. Because the size of platelet grains decreased as the content of CaO + SiO2 increased, the distribution of either SiO2 particles or this intergranular phase of CaO – Al2O3 – SiO2 might control the microstructure. 相似文献

0.14 Several samples were prepared by reaction sintering mixtures of TiN, Al2O3 and AlN powders at 1400 to 1470 °C for 4 h in a nitrogen atmosphere to maximize this phase. One specific advantage of the nitrogen-containing aluminium titanate over aluminium titanate is that the former is unchanged at 1150 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere whereas the latter decomposes. In the Al2O3-TiO2 oxide system Al2TiO5 solid solution extends to approximately Al0.75Ti2.25O5 at 1470 °C under the mildly reducing conditions of a graphite furnace. The unit cell volume increases linearly with the increasing replacement of Al3+ by Ti3+. 相似文献
