Room temperature tensile strengths of as-received Hi-Nicalon fibers and those having BN/SiC, p-BN/SiC, and p-B(Si)N/SiC surface coatings, deposited by chemical vapor deposition, were measured using an average fiber diameter of 13.5m. The Weibull statistical parameters were determined for each fiber. The average tensile strength of uncoated Hi-Nicalon was 3.19 ± 0.73 GPa with a Weibull modulus of 5.41. Strength of fibers coated with BN/SiC did not change. However, fibers coated with p-BN/SiC and p-B(Si)N/SiC surface layers showed strength loss of ~10% and 35%, respectively, compared with the as-received fibers.The elemental compositions of the fibers and the coatings were analyzed using scanning Auger microprobe and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The BN coating was contaminated with a large concentration of carbon and some oxygen. In contrast, p-BN, p-B(Si)N,and SiC coatings did not show any contamination. Microstructural analyses of the fibers and the coatings were done by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and selected area electron diffraction. Hi-Nicalon fiber consists of fine -SiC nanocrystals ranging in size from 1 to 30 nm embedded in an amorphous matrix. TEM analysis of the BN coating revealed four distinct layers with turbostratic structure. The p-BN layer was turbostratic and showed considerable preferred orientation. The p-B(Si)N was glassy and the silicon and boron were uniformly distributed. The silicon carbide coating was polycrystalline with a columnar structure along the growth direction. The p-B(Si)N/SiC coatings were more uniform, less defective and of better quality than the BN/SiC or the p-BN/SiC coatings. 相似文献

Si3N4 matrix composites reinforced with pyrolytic carbon pre-coated Hi-Nicalon (SiC) fibers, were studied using tensile testing and transmission electron microscopy. Three types of samples were evaluated all with a nominal coating thickness of 200 nm. The composites were densified by hot pressing at 1550 °C (type I and II) and at 1600 °C (type III). The fibers were coated with pyrolytic carbon via CVD with identical (sample I) and opposite (samples II and III) directions of the gas flow and of the fiber movement through the reactor. Tensile testing indicated for the three sample types respectively: brittle behaviour with huge pull out of the fibers, pseudo-plastic behaviour and brittle behaviour with little pull out. TEM indicated for the three sample types debonding typically at the fiber/coating interface, at the coating/matrix interface and in the coating, respectively. The relation between processing, structure, particularly of the coating and its interfaces with the matrix and the fibers and mechanical properties is addressed. 相似文献

Tensile strengths of as-received Hi-Nicalon fibres and those having a dual BN–SiC surface coating, deposited by chemical vapour deposition, have been measured at room temperature. These fibres were also treated with HF for 24 h followed by tensile strength measurements. Strengths of uncoated and BN–SiC coated Hi-Nicalon fibres extracted from celsian matrix composites, by dissolving away the matrix in HF for 24 h, were also determined. The average tensile strength of uncoated Hi-Nicalon was 3.19±0.73 GPa with a Weibull modulus of 5.41. The Hi-Nicalon–BN–SiC fibres showed an average strength of 3.04±0.53 GPa and Weibull modulus of 6.66. After HF treatment, the average strengths of the uncoated and BN–SiC coated Hi-Nicalon fibres were 2.69±0.67 and 2.80±0.53 GPa and the Weibull moduli were 4.93 and 5.96, respectively. The BN–SiC coated fibres extracted from the celsian matrix composite exhibited a strength of 2.38±0.40 GPa and a Weibull modulus of 7.15. The strength of the uncoated Hi-Nicalon fibres in the composite was so severely degraded that they disintegrated into small fragments during extraction with HF. The uncoated fibres probably undergo mechanical surface damage during hot pressing of the composites. Also, the BN layer on the coated fibres acts as a compliant layer, which protects the fibres from mechanical damage during composite processing. The elemental composition and thickness of the fibre coatings were determined using scanning Auger analysis. Microstructural analyses of the fibres and the coatings were done by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. Stengths of fibres calculated using average and measured fibre diameters were in good agreement. Thus, the strengths of fibres can be evaluated using an average fibre diameter instead of the measured diameter of each filament. © 1998 Kluwer Academic Publishers 相似文献

Batch to batch and within batch variations, and the influence of fiber architecture on room temperature physical and tensile properties of BN/SiC coated Hi-Nicalon and Sylramic SiC fiber preform specimens were determined. The three fiber architectures studied were plain weave (PW), 5-harness satin (5HS), and 8-harness satin (8HS). Results indicate that the physical properties vary up to 10 percent within a batch, and up to 20 percent between batches of preforms. Load-reload (Hysteresis) and acoustic emission methods were used to analyze damage accumulation occurring during tensile loading. Early acoustic emission activity, before observable hysteretic behavior, indicates that the damage starts with the formation of nonbridged tunnel cracks. These cracks then propagate and intersect the load bearing 0° fibers giving rise to hysteretic behavior. For the Hi-Nicalon preform specimens, the onset of ° bundle cracking stress and strain appeared to be independent of the fiber architecture. Also, the 0° fiber bundle cracking strain remained nearly the same for the preform specimens of both fiber types. TEM analysis indicates that the CVI BN interface coating is mostly amorphous and contains carbon and oxygen impurities, and the CVI SiC coating is crystalline. No reaction exists between the CVI BN and SiC coating. 相似文献

Steel fiber reinforced aluminium composites are attractive materials of high specific strength but exhibit poor resistance
against electrochemical corrosion. The study discusses the electrochemical corrosion behavior of uncoated, copper and nickel
coated short steel fiber reinforced aluminium and Al–2Mg matrix composites in 1 (N) NaCl solution. Galvanic corrosion between
the steel fiber and aluminium governs the corrosion behavior of these composites. It has been observed that open circuit potential
(OCP) is shifted to more negative side with copper coating on the fibers and to the more positive side on coating the fibers
with nickel. Compared to the uncoated fiber higher corrosion current density indicates corrosion rate was observed for the
copper coated fiber reinforced composites where as a lower current density was noted for the nickel coated fiber reinforced
composites was observed. Addition of 2 wt% magnesium to aluminium alloy matrix increased the corrosion current density. The
corrosion mechanism in these composites is dominated by galvanic cell formation that is evident from the dissolution of Al
matrix near the peripheral region of steel fibers. 相似文献

Fabrication and characterization of cast Al–2Mg alloy matrix composites reinforced with short steel fibers are dealt with in the present study. Three types of steel fiber were used: uncoated, copper coated and nickel coated. All the composites were prepared by the liquid metal route using vortex methods. When tested in tension, all composites exhibited improvement in strength due to high relative strength of steel fibers. The ductility was lowered except for the composite with copper coated fibers. Copper coated fiber reinforced composites gave the highest strength. Higher strength accompanied with appreciable ductility demonstrated by composites with copper coated fibers is attributed to the solid solution and fiber strengthening as well as good bonding at the interface. Composites reinforced with uncoated and Ni coated steel fibers did not exhibit strengthening to the level exhibited with copper coated fibers because brittle intermetallic phases are formed at the interface. These phases promote initiation and facilitate propagation of cracks. The observed fracture mechanism of composites was dimple formation, fiber breakage and pullout of fibers. Fracture surface of uncoated and Ni coated composites showed extensive pull out of fibers as well as fiber breakage confirming the above inference. In case of the copper coated composites dimple formation and coalescence was more extensive. EDX analysis showed a build up Cu, Ni, and Fe at the interface. 相似文献

The present paper reports on the fabrication and the mechanical properties of SiC (Hi-Nicalon) fibres reinforced Si3N4 matrix composites. The composite was fabricated by liquid infiltration of an aqueous Si3N4 slurry followed by hot-pressing. The effect of fibre coating layers was investigated with a 400 nm thick pyrolytic carbon. The fibre coating was found to have a significant effect on the frictional stress of the fibre-matrix interface and consequently on the fracture behaviour of the composite. 相似文献

Unidirectional CVD SiC (SCS-6) monofilament reinforced BaOAl2O32SiO2(BAS) glass—ceramic matrix composites have been fabricated by a tape lay-up method followed by hot pressing. The glass matrix flows around fibers during hot pressing resulting in nearly fully dense (95–98%) composites. Strong and tough composites having first matrix cracking stress of 250–300 MPa and ultimate flexural strength as high as 900 MPa have been obtained. Composite fracture surfaces showed fiber pullout with no chemical reaction at the fiber/matrix interface. From fiber push out, the fiber/matrix interfacial debond strength and the sliding frictional stress were determined to be 5.9 ± 1.2 MPa and 4.8 ± 0.9 MPa, respectively. The fracture surface of an uncoated SiC (SCS-0)/BAS composite also showed fiber/matrix debonding, fiber pullout, and crack deflection around the fibers implying that the SiC fibers may need no surface coating for reinforcement of the BAS glass-ceramic. Applicability of micromechanical models in predicting the first matrix cracking stress and the ultimate strength of these composites has also been examined. 相似文献

Commercially pure Al base short steel fiber reinforced composites were prepared by stir casting method and poured into a cast iron mould. Steel fibers were coated with copper and nickel by electroless deposition method. The density, hardness and strength of composites increased as compared to matrix alloy. The mechanical properties of these composites were measured and the results were correlated with the microstructure observation. It was found that copper-coated short steel fiber reinforced composites show considerable improvement in strength with good ductility because copper form a good interface between Al matrix and short steel fiber. Nickel-coated steel fiber reinforced composites showed improvement in strength to a lower extent possibly because of formation of intermetallic compound at the interface. The improvement in strength with uncoated fibers and nickel-coated fibers is on the lower side because of formation of brittle intermetallic compounds like Fe2Al5 and FeAl3. Fracture surface of tensile specimen was examined under SEM, which revealed a ductile fracture. Copper coating on steel fiber improved the strength properties while retaining a high level of ductility due to better interface bonding. 相似文献

In order to tailor the fiber–matrix interface of continuous silicon carbide fiber reinforced silicon carbide (SiCf/SiC) composites for improved fracture toughness, alternating pyrolytic carbon/silicon carbide (PyC/SiC) multilayer coatings were applied to the KD-I SiC fibers using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. Three dimensional (3D) KD-I SiCf/SiC composites reinforced by these coated fibers were fabricated using a precursor infiltration and pyrolysis (PIP) process. The interfacial characteristics were determined by the fiber push-out test and microstructural examination using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effect of interface coatings on composite mechanical properties was evaluated by single-edge notched beam (SENB) test and three-point bending test. The results indicate that the PyC/SiC multilayer coatings led to an optimum interfacial bonding between fibers and matrix and greatly improved the fracture toughness of the composites. 相似文献

In order to prevent environmental degradation of the interface, a triplex coating was employed as the interface in ceramic matrix composites (CMC). This interface consists of an initial BN layer followed by a Si3N4 layer and lastly another BN layer. Single strand unidirectional mini-composites using BN/Si3N4/BN coated ceramic grade Nicalon? fibers as the reinforcement and chemical vapor infiltrated (CVI) SiC as the matrix were fabricated to understand the initial properties of the interfacial coating. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) confirmed the thickness of the triplex coating before and after mini-composite fabrication. FE-SEM micrographs after mechanical and environmental testing of the single strand unidirectional mini-composites showed the consequences of using the triplex interfacial coating. Finally, eight ply continuous fiber reinforced (CFR) CMCs with the BN/Si3N4/BN triplex interface and the traditional BN/Si3N4 duplex interface were fabricated using the polymer impregnation and pyrolysis (PIP) process. The PIP process has gained popularity in recent years and this allows for the fabrication of larger CMC panels as compared with the CVI process. Mechanical testing for the PIP-fabricated CFR-CMC panels showed that the composites using the triplex interface had better mechanical properties than those fabricated with a BN/Si3N4 duplex interface after environmental testing. 相似文献

A method has been developed for the fabrication of small diameter, multifilament tow, fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composites. Its application has been successfully demonstrated for the Hi-Nicalon/celsian system. Strong and tough celsian matrix composites, reinforced with BN/SiC-coated Hi-Nicalon fibers, have been fabricated by infiltrating the fiber tows with the matrix slurry, winding the tows on a drum, cutting and stacking of the prepreg tapes in the desired orientation, and hot pressing. The monoclinic celsian phase in the matrix was produced in situ, during hot pressing, from the 0.75BaO–0.25SrO–Al2O3–2SiO2 mixed precursor synthesized by solid state reaction from metal oxides. Hot pressing resulted in almost fully dense fiber-reinforced composites. The unidirectional composites having ∼42 vol.% of fibers exhibited graceful failure with extensive fiber pullout in three-point bend tests at room temperature. Values of yield stress and strain were 435±35 MPa and 0.27±0.01%, respectively, and ultimate strengths of 900±60 MPa were observed. Young's modulus of the composites was measured to be 165±5 GPa. 相似文献

A processing route for ceramic matrix composites is developed based uponpolymer pyrolysis. Three types of NicalonTM fiber woven fabrics,—i.e., uncoated, carbon-coated, and carbon/SiC-coated—are impregnated with apolysilazane solution. Thus-formed prepregs are then cut, laminated,pressed and fired to 1000 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere. Upon pyrolysis,polysilazane converts to a Si3N4-based ceramic matrix with 60 wt% yield. The composites made with uncoated NicalonTM fibers have poor flexural andtensile strength (103 and 19 MPa, respectively) and show brittle fracturebehavior. That is due not only to the poor fiber-matrix interface but alsoto processing-induced fiber damage. For carbon and carbon/SiC-coatedNicalonTM fiber composites, the coating layers on the fiber surfacemanipulate the appropriate fiber-matrix interface and also protect thefibers from damage during polymer pyrolysis, so these composites exhibithigher flexural (250 and 274 MPa, respectively) and tensile (138 and 196 MPa, respectively) strength. Also, the load stress-deflection behavior ofcomposites with two types of coated fibers cause noncatastrophic fracture. 相似文献

Ceramic matrix composites are attractive as candidate materials for high-temperature applications offering some advantages compared to monolithic ceramics and high-temperature metal alloys. SiC fibre reinforced silicon nitride is one such composite system. However, the processing route is critical to the production of a reliable composite. In this study, silicon nitride matrix densification was improved and sintering temperature was lowered by coating of Si3N4 particles with oxides deposited from hydrolysed metal alkoxides. The solution containing oxide coated Si3N4 powders was used as a slurry to infiltrate Nicalon SiC fibre tows. Following previous studies, the fibres were heat-treated in carbon monoxide to improve mechanical and surface properties. Infiltrated green bodies were hot-pressed at elevated temperatures to produce dense composites. The results showed that particle coating accelerated densification kinetics, eliminated pores and reduced the required hot-pressing temperature. There was also less fibre degradation as a result of the lower temperature of densification. Bending strength and fracture toughness of the composites were measured and fractography was conducted using scanning electron microscope. Composites manufactured using coated Si3N4 powders showed improved properties, specifically matrix stiffening and delayed crack initiation under load. 相似文献

Finite element method (FEM) analysis and experimental studies are undertaken on the design of the fiber volume ratio in silicon carbide (SiC) fiber-reinforced SiC composites under indentation contact stresses. Boron nitride (BN)/Pyrocarbon (PyC) are selected as the coating materials for the SiC fiber. Various SiC matrix/coating/fiber/coating/matrix structures are modeled by introducing a woven fiber layer in the SiC matrix. Especially, this study attempts to find the optimum fiber volume ratio in SiC fiber-reinforced SiC ceramics under Hertzian stress. The analysis is performed by changing the fiber type, fiber volume ratio, coating material, number of coating layers, and stacking sequence of the coating layers. The variation in the stress for composites in relation to the fiber volume ratio in the contact axial or radial direction is also analyzed. The same structures are fabricated experimentally by a hot process, and the mechanical behaviors regarding the load–displacement are evaluated using the Hertzian indentation method. Various SiC matrix/coating/fiber/coating/matrix structures are fabricated, and mechanical characterization is performed by changing the coating layer, according to the introduction (or omission) of the coating layer, and the number of woven fiber mats. The results show that the damage mode changes from Hertzian stress to flexural stress as the fiber volume ratio increases in composites because of the decreased matrix volume fraction, which intensifies the radial crack damage. The result significantly indicates that the optimum fiber volume ratio in SiC fiber-reinforced SiC ceramics should be designed for inhibiting the flexural stress. 相似文献

Boron nitride was studied as a fiber–matrix interface coating for Nicalon™/SiC composites. The effect of initial O-impurity content within the as-processed BN coatings on the long-term interface stability was investigated at elevated temperatures in flowing oxygen. Two types of Nicalon™/SiC composites were used for this study; one composite had a BN coating with <2% oxygen (low-O BN) and another composite had BN with an oxygen concentration >11% (high-O BN) in the as-processed state. The high-O BN is actually most representative of BN coatings available commercially. The BN coatings in both the high-O and low-O BN containing composites were structurally similar. The samples used here were thinned to <200 μm before oxidation and the final preparation for electron microscopy examination of the interface region was done after the reactions were completed. Thin samples were used to simulate maximum corrosion effects that would occur at the surface of an actual part during service. Ech sample was exposed to flowing oxygen at temperatures as high as 950°C for times up to 400 h. After each oxidation experiment, the BN coatings were examined by TEM to quantify the extent of any reaction which occurred at either the fiber/BN and BN/SiC matrix interfaces. At 950°C for 100 h, there were no interface microstructural changes observed in the low-O BN but there was extensive silica formation at the fiber/BN interfaces in the high-O BN. After 400 h at 950°C, large voids formed at the fiber/BN interface in the high-O BN sample only. Oxygen present within the initial BN coating contributed significantly to the degradation of the interfacial properties of the composite. Several techniques, including transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), energy-dispersive spectrometry (EDS), and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) were used to characterize changes in structure and chemistry of the fiber–matrix interface region and to elucidate and quantify composite degradation mechanisms. 相似文献
