针刺炭纤维预制体结构单元对C/C复合材料性能的影响

采用6K炭纤维无纬布/网胎交替叠层及12K炭纤维无纬布/网胎交替叠层,在针刺工艺,致密化、热处理工艺完全相同的情况下,制备了密度为1.8g/cm3的热解炭/树脂炭双元基体的两种C/C复合材料产品,考察了针刺预制体结构单元对C/C复合材料性能的影响.结果表明,两种C/C复合材料的热学（垂直方向导热系数）、电学性能及石墨化度基本相当;而针刺6K炭纤维无纬布/网胎预制体C/C复合材料的拉伸、弯曲、压缩、层间剪切强度分别为127MPa,189MPa,263MPa,24.6MPa;其平行方向导热系数为54.6W/m＆#183;K,比常规针刺12K炭纤维无纬布/网胎预制体C/C复合材料相应提高了38％,32.2％,32.8％,38.9％,21％,彰显了细化针刺预制体结构单元对C/C复合材料力学性能的显著影响.

Effect of preform architecture on the mechanical properties of 2D C/C composites prepared using rapid directional diffused CVI processes

The substrate architecture of carbon-carbon (C/C) composites has an effect on both the mechanical properties and the cost of the products. Four kinds of substrate materials, 1K and 3K plain carbon cloth, carbon paper, and carbon felt, were used in this study, and from them four different 2D preforms were produced, namely, 1K plain carbon cloth, carbon paper+1K plain carbon cloth, carbon felt+1K plain carbon cloth, 3K plain carbon cloth, using a spreading layer method. The preforms were densified using the rapid directional diffused CVI processes. A three-point bend test was used to investigate the influence of preform architecture on the flexural properties and microstructure of the C/C composites. The results show that all samples have an obvious pseudo-plastic fracture behaviour, and the macroscopic appearance of the bent fractured section shows as an Z shape. The samples prepared using 1K plain carbon cloth have a uniform microstructure, and consequently possess the highest flexural strength, while the composites produced from 3K plain carbon cloth possess the lowest value due to their poor microstructure and lower strength fibers. In general the flexural properties of the C/C composites are improved with an increase of the carbon fiber volume fraction in the preform. All the C/C composites manufactured from the four preforms fail by delamination when broken.     

C/C多孔体对C/C-SiC复合材料微观结构和弯曲性能的影响

以4种纤维含量相同(32%,体积分数,下同),用化学气相渗透(chemical vapor infiltration,CVI)法制备了4种密度的碳纤维增强碳(carbon fiber reinforced carbon,C/C)多孔体,基体炭含量约20%～50%.利用液相渗硅法(liquid silicon infiltration,LSI)制备了C/C-SiC复合材料,研究了C/C多孔体对所制备的C/C-SiC复合材料微观结构和弯曲性能的影响.结果表明:不同密度的C/C多孔体反应渗硅后,复合材料的物相组成均为SiC,C及单质Si;随着C/C多孔体中基体炭含量的增加,C/C-SiC复合材料中SiC含量逐渐减少而热解炭含量逐渐增加.C/C-SiC复合材料弯曲强度随着材料中残留热解炭含量增加而逐渐增加,热解炭含量为约42%的C/C多孔体所制备的C/C-SiC复合材料的弯曲强度最大,达到320 MPa.     

Effect of preform and carbon matrix on bending strength of Cf/Cu/C composites

Aiming to obtain composites with appropriate mechanical properties for pantograph sliders, copper mesh modified carbon/carbon (C_f/Cu/C) composites were prepared by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) in C₃H₆ +?N₂ atmosphere and impregnation-carbonization (I-C) with furan resin. In this paper, C_f/Cu/C composites with two kinds of preforms and carbon matrixes were obtained. The effect of preforms and carbon matrixes on bending strength was investigated. The results indicated that the bending strength of carbon fiber/copper mesh reinforced pyrolytic carbon matrix composites was about 181.39–195.43?MPa, while that reinforced resin carbon matrix composites had the worst bending strength around 54.45–57.04?MPa, in terms of the same preform. The bending strength of C_f/Cu/C composites in the parallel orientation and vertical orientation were also similar. As for C_f/Cu/C composites with the same carbon matrix, the bending strength of C_f/Cu/C composites with non-woven fiber/fiber web/copper mesh type preform was higher than that with fiber web/copper mesh type preform. However, the bending strength of carbon fiber/copper mesh reinforced resin carbon matrix composites showed the opposite trend, and its reasons were analyzed and discussed taking advantage of the fracture mechanisms.

Microstructures and properties of Si-Zr alloy based CMCs reinforced by various porous C/C performs

C/C-SiC composites were fabricated via Si-Zr reactive alloyed melt infiltration using various C/C preforms with different porosities as reinforcements. The influence of preform porosities on the microstructure, mechanical strength and ablation resistance of the as-prepared composites were investigated. The results indicated that microstructure and properties of the C/C-SiC composites seriously depended on C/C preform porosities. The composites were mainly composed of carbon, SiC and ZrSi₂ phases, while some residual silicon still existed in the composites prepared with very large porosity preforms. Flexural strength of the composites firstly increased with increasing C/C preform porosities, then reached the highest value, 307?MPa, and finally turned to decrease with the further increasing of preform porosities. Densities of the composites increased with increasing preform porosities, while open porosities were generally small below 7%. Linear ablation rates of the composites firstly sharply decreased with increasing preform porosities and then slightly decreased to reach a balance value. In a word, C/C preform porosity was of great significance for reactive melt infiltration of C/C-SiC composites. Densities, microstructure, mechanical strength and ablation resistance of the resulting composites should be comprehensively taken into consideration to choose an optimal preform porosity for fabrication of C/C-SiC composites.     

Effects of needle-punched felt structure on the mechanical properties of carbon/carbon composites

The effects of needle-punched felt structure, including mass ratio of non-woven cloth to short-cut fiber web, PAN-based carbon fiber types of non-woven cloth and thickness of unit (one layer of non-woven cloth and short-cut web was named as a unit), on the flexural properties of C/C composites from pressure gradient CVI are discussed. Results show that flexural strength and modulus increase when mass ratio of non-woven cloth to short-cut fiber web changes from 7:3 to 6:4 and that PAN-based carbon fiber types of non-woven cloth strongly influence the flexural properties. The strength of C/C composites is not linear with the strength of non-woven cloth carbon fiber because of the important interface between carbon fiber and matrix carbon. It is suitable to choose T300 or T700 as reinforcing carbon fiber for C/C composites in the present study. An optimum unit number per cm of the needle-punched felts for higher flexural properties exists.     

Preparation and properties of 2D C/SiC-ZrB2-TaC composites

Two-dimensional (2D) C/SiC-ZrB₂-TaC composites were fabricated by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) combined with slurry paste (SP) method. 2D laminate was prepared by stacking carbon cloth that was pasted with a mixture of polycarbosilane-ZrB₂-TaC slurry. A small amount of carbon fiber tows were introduced into the preform in the vertical direction. After heat-treated at 1800 °C, the 2D laminate was densified with SiC by CVI to obtain 2D C/SiC-ZrB₂-TaC composites. Properties including flexural strength, interlaminar shear strength, and thermal expansion of the composites were investigated. The ablation test was carried out under an oxyacetylene torch flame. The morphologies of the ablated specimens were analyzed. The results indicate that the adding vertical fiber tows and heat-treatment at 1800 °C can greatly improve the mechanical properties of the composites. The co-addition of TaC and ZrB₂ powders into C/SiC composite effectively enhance its ablation resistance.
