A suspension stabilizer-coating technique was employed to prepare x mol% Yb 2O 3 ( x = 1.0, 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0) and 1.0 mol% Y 2O 3 co-doped ZrO 2 powder. A systematic study was conducted on the sintering behaviour, phase assemblage, microstructural development and mechanical properties of Yb 2O 3 and Y 2O 3 co-doped zirconia ceramics. Fully dense ZrO 2 ceramics were obtained by means of pressureless sintering in air for 1 h at 1450 °C. The phase composition of the ceramics could be controlled by tuning the Yb 2O 3 content and the sintering parameters. Polycrystalline tetragonal ZrO 2 (TZP) and fully stabilised cubic ZrO 2 (FSZ) were achieved in the 1.0 mol% Y 2O 3 stabilised ceramic, co-doped with 1.0 mol% Yb 2O 3 and 4.0 mol% Yb 2O 3, respectively. The amount of stabilizer needed to form cubic ZrO 2 phase in the Yb 2O 3 and Y 2O 3 co-doped ZrO 2 ceramics was lower than that of single phase Y 2O 3-doped materials. The indentation fracture toughness could be tailored up to 8.5 MPa m 1/2 in combination with a hardness of 12 GPa by sintering a 1.0 mol% Yb 2O 3 and 1.0 mol% Y 2O 3 ceramic at 1450 °C for 1 h. 相似文献

In this paper, a strategy is described to develop high toughness yttria-stabilised tetragonal zirconia polycrystalline (Y-TZP) composites reinforced with hard TiB 2 particles. The experimental results revealed that fully dense Y-TZP composites with 30 vol.% TiB 2 can be obtained with a moderate hardness of 13 GPa, a high strength up to 1280 MPa and an excellent indentation toughness up to 10 MPa m 1/2 by hot pressing in vacuum at 1450 °C. The toughness of the composites can be tailored between 4 and 10 MPa m 1/2 by varying the yttria stabiliser content of the ZrO 2 matrix between 3 and 2 mol%. An optimum composite toughness was achieved for a ZrO 2 matrix with an overall yttria content of 2.5 mol%, obtained by mixing pure monoclinic and 3 mol% Y 2O 3 co-precipitated ZrO 2 starting powders. An important observation is that the thermal residual tensile stress in the ZrO 2 matrix due to the TiB 2 addition, needs to be taken into account when optimising the transformability of the ZrO 2 matrix in order to develop high toughness Y-TZP composites. 相似文献

In the present study, both t-phase zirconia and m-phase zirconia particles are incorporated into an alumina matrix. Dense Al 2O 3/(t-ZrO 2+m-ZrO 2) composites were prepared by sintering pressurelessly at 1600 °C. The microstructure of the composites are characterized, the elastic modulus, strength and toughness determined. Because the ZrO 2 inclusions are close to each other in the Al 2O 3 matrix, the yttrium ion originally in t-ZrO 2 particles can diffuse to nearby m-ZrO 2 particles during sintering, and the m-phase zirconia is thus stabilized after sintering. The strength of the Al 2O 3/(t-ZrO 2+m-ZrO 2) composites after surface grinding can reach values as high as 940 MPa, which is roughly three times that of Al 2O 3 alone. The strengthening effect is contributed by microstructural refinement together with the surface compressive stresses induced by grinding. The toughness of alumina is also enhanced by adding both t-phase and m-phase zirconia, which can reach values as high as two times that of Al 2O 3 alone. The toughening effect is attributed mainly to the zirconia t–m phase transformation. 相似文献

Effect of gel aging on the characteristics of zirconia-toughened alumina (ZTA) composites were investigated. The composite powders were prepared by coprecipitation processes using a mixed solution of aluminum nitrate and zirconium oxynitrate. The coprecipitates were aged in an aqueous solution of pH 9 at room temperature. The occurrence of either intra- or intergranular ZrO 2 particles in the Al 2O 3 matrix depended on the aging condition, which also affected the content of tetragonal ZrO 2 (t-ZrO 2). Aging treatment decreased the amount of intragranular ZrO 2, as well as the agglomerate strength of calcined powders, both of which seemed to improve the sintered densities of ZTA ceramic bodies. Through suitable aging processes, sintered ZTA specimens with relative density >99% and intergranular ZrO 2 particles were fabricated. 相似文献

The critical amount and critical size of ZrO 2 for effective dragging of grain boundary migration occurred at 8 vol% addition for Al 2O 3 ceramic composite, pressureless-sintered at 1600°C for 2h. The fracture toughness was increased from 4·1 to 5·4 MPa m 1/2, and the flexural strength from 290 to 410 MPa at optimal conditions. The enhancement of mechanical properties is attributed to the stress-induced phase transformation toughening when ZrO 2 particles were located intergranularly. Al 2O 3 grain growth is inhibited by ZrO 2 particles pinning at the grain boundaries. 相似文献

Surface-phase ZrO 2 on SiO 2 (SZrOs) and surface-phase La 2O 3 on Al 2O 3 (SLaOs) were prepared with various loadings of ZrO 2 and La 2O 3, characterized and used as supports for preparing Pt/SZrOs and Pt/SLaOs catalysts. CH 4/CO 2 reforming over the Pt/SZrOs and Pt/SLaOs catalysts was examined and compared with Pt/Al 2O 3 and Pt/SiO 2 catalysts. CO 2 or CH 4 pulse reaction/adsorption analysis was employed to elucidate the effects of these surface-phase oxides. The zirconia can be homogeneously dispersed on SiO2 to form a stable surface-phase oxide. The lanthana cannot be spread well on Al2O3, but it forms a stable amorphous oxide with Al2O3. The Pt/SZrOs and Pt/SLaOs catalysts showed higher steady activity than did Pt/SiO2 and Pt/Al2O3 by a factor of three to four. The Pt/SZrOs and Pt/SLaOs catalysts were also much more stable than the Pt/SiO2 and Pt/Al2O3 catalysts for long stream time and for reforming temperatures above 700 °C. These findings were attributed to the activation of CO2 adsorbed on the basic sites of SZrOs and SLaOs. 相似文献

The flexure creep behaviour of monolithic Al 2O 3 and 10 vol% SiC-particle reinforced Al 2O 3 matrix composites was investigated in air atmosphere at 1160 to 1400 °C and under a stress of 40 to 125 MPa. Two kinds of SiC particles with different particle sizes and oxygen contents were used in the composites, one having an average size of 0.6 μm with 1.7 vol% SiO 2 impurities and the other of average size 2.7 μm with 3.4 vol% SiO 2 impurities. Compared with the creep behaviour of monolithic Al 2O 3 the strain rate of the composites with 0.6 μm SiC particles did not decrease; however, the composites with 2.7 μm SiC particles exhibited excellent creep resistance. Microstructure analysis showed that the Al 2O 3 grains in the composites with 0.6 μm SiC particles were mainly equiaxed with most of the SiC particles lying at the grain boundaries or triplegrain junctions, whereas the grain features of the composites with 2.7 μm SiC particles were irregular and elongated and most of the SiC particles were entrapped into Al 2O 3 matrix grains. It was revealed that the entrapment of 2.7 μm SiC particles into Al 2O 3 matrix grains was related to the high SiO 2 impurity content on SiC particle surfaces, and the change of grain morphology and the good high-temperature oxidation resistance were responsible for the creep resistance increase of the composites with 2.7 μm SiC particles. 相似文献

The NiSO 4 supported on Fe 2O 3-promoted ZrO 2 catalysts were prepared by the impregnation method. Fe 2O 3-promoted ZrO 2 was prepared by the coprecipitation method using a mixed aqueous solution of zirconium oxychloride and iron nitrate solution followed by adding an aqueous ammonia solution. No diffraction line of nickel sulfate was observed up to 20 wt.%, indicating good dispersion of nickel sulfate on the surface of Fe 2O 3–ZrO 2. The addition of nickel sulfate (or Fe 2O 3) to ZrO 2 shifted the phase transition of ZrO 2 (from amorphous to tetragonal) to higher temperatures because of the interaction between nickel sulfate (or Fe 2O 3) and ZrO 2. 15-NiSO 4/5-Fe 2O 3–ZrO 2 containing 15 wt.% NiSO 4 and 5 mol% Fe 2O 3, and calcined at 500 °C exhibited a maximum catalytic activity for ethylene dimerization. NiSO 4/Fe 2O 3–ZrO 2 catalysts was very effective for ethylene dimerization even at room temperature, but Fe 2O 3–ZrO 2 without NiSO 4 did not exhibit any catalytic activity at all. The catalytic activities were correlated with the acidity of catalysts measured by the ammonia chemisorption method. The addition of Fe 2O 3 up to 5 mol% enhanced the acidity, surface area, thermal property, and catalytic activities of catalysts gradually, due to the interaction between Fe 2O 3 and ZrO 2 and due to consequent formation of Fe–O–Zr bond. 相似文献

The mechanism of the CO 2 reforming of methane reaction over the Pt/ZrO 2 catalyst was investigated using a temporal analysis of products (TAP) reactor system. For comparative purposes, the reaction pathway using a Pt/Al 2O 3 catalyst was also examined. A reaction sequence is suggested for both catalysts. Over both catalysts, methane decomposition takes place over platinum. The main difference between the two catalysts concerns the carbon dioxide dissociation. Over Pt/Al 2O 3 this step is assisted by hydrogen. Over Pt/ZrO 2 this step takes place over the zirconia support and involves surface vacancies. Moreover, large pools of formate and carbonate species are present on the zirconia. Transient studies conducted to determine the origin of carbon species accumulated during CO 2 reforming revealed that more than 99% of the carbon was derived from the methane molecule over both catalysts. Over the Pt/ZrO 2 catalyst, only a single very reactive carbon species was detected, while over the Pt/Al 2O 3 a second less active species was also formed. 相似文献

The pyrolised polysilazanes poly(hydridomethyl)silazane NCP 200 and poly(urea)silazane CERASET derived Si–C–N amorphous powders were used for preparation of micro/nano Si 3N 4/SiC composites by hot pressing. Y 2O 3–Al 2O 3 and Y 2O 3–Yb 2O 3 were used, as sintering aids. The resulting ceramic composites of all compositions were dense and polycrystalline with fine microstructure of average grain size <1 μm of both Si 3N 4 and SiC phases. The fine SiC nano-inclusions were identified within the Si 3N 4 micrograins. Phase composition of both composites consist of , β modifications of Si 3N 4 and SiC. High weight loss was observed during the hot pressing cycle, 12 and 19 wt.% for NCP 200 and CERASET precursors, respectively. The fracture toughness of both nanocomposites (NCP 2000 and CERASET derived) was not different. Indentation method measured values are from 5 to 6 MPa m 1/2, with respect to the sintering additive system. Fracture toughness is slightly sensitive to the SiC content of the nanocomposite. Hardness increases with the content of SiC in the nanocomposite. The highest hardness was achieved for pyrolysed CERASET precursor with 2 wt.% Y 2O 3 and 6 wt.% Yb 2O 3, HV 23 GPa. This is a consequence of the highest SiC content as well as the chemical composition of additives. 相似文献

Zirconia supported on alumina was prepared and characterized by BET surface area, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), temperature programmed desorption (TPD), and pulse reaction. 0.2% Pd/ZrO 2/Al 2O 3 catalyst were prepared by incipient wetness impregnation of supports with aqueous solution of Pd(NO 3) 2. The effects of support properties on catalytic activity for methane combustion and CO oxidation were investigated. The results show that ZrO 2 is highly dispersed on the surface of Al 2O 3 up to 10 wt.% ZrO 2, beyond this value tetragonal ZrO 2 is formed. The presence of a small amount of ZrO 2 can increase the surface area, pore volume and acidity of support. CO–TPD results show that the increase of CO adsorption capacity and the activation of CO bond after the presence of ZrO 2 lead to the increase of catalytic activity of Pd catalyst for CO oxidation. CO pulse reaction results indicate that the lattice oxygen of support can be activated at lower temperature following the presence of ZrO 2, but it does not accelerate the activity of 0.2% Pd/ZrO 2/Al 2O 3 for methane combustion. 0.2% Pd/ZrO 2/Al 2O 3 dried at 120 °C shows highest activity for CH 4 combustion, and the activity can be further enhanced following the repeat run. The increase of treatment temperature and pre-reduction can decrease the activity of catalyst for CH 4 combustion. 相似文献

Homogeneous-eutectic microstructure of Y 3Al 5O 12–Al 2O 3 system without coarse primary crystals was formed at an off-eutectic composition. This method utilizes a low migration rate in an amorphous phase. A mixture of Y 2O 3 and Al 2O 3 having the off-eutectic composition was melted and quenched rapidly to form an amorphous phase. A heat-treatment of the amorphous phase at 1000 °C and 1300 °C for 30 min formed Y 3Al 5O 12 and Al 2O 3 phases. SEM observation of this material, which was formed from the amorphous phase at 1300 °C for 30 min, showed homogeneous eutectic-like microstructure. The formation of the primary crystals (coarse Al 2O 3), which are always observed in the off-eutectic compositions by ordinary method, was completely suppressed. 相似文献

The system Al 2O 3–ZrO 2 was studied by differential thermal analysis in inert atmosphere and in vacuum. The eutectic was located at 1866°C and 40% mass of ZrO 2. Zirconia solid solution at the eutectic temperature is up to 1.1±0.3% mass of Al 2O 3. Enthalpy of melting of this eutectic is 1080±90 J/g. Pure ZrO 2 transforms from monoclinic to tetragonal at 1162±7°C, but the saturated solid solution of ZrO 2, with 0.7±0.2% mass Al 2O 3 at this temperature, transforms at 1085±5°C. Inverse transitions occur with hysteresis correspondingly at 1055±5 and 995±5°C. Enthalpy of transformation of pure ZrO 2 from monoclinic to tetragonal phase is 42±5 J/g (5.2±0.6 J/mol) but only 30±5 J/g for a ZrO 2 saturated solid solution. 相似文献

Three techniques for the determination of KIc in Ce-stabilized ZrO 2/Al 2O 3 composites have been evaluated: the single-edge-notched beam (SENB); the indentation strength in bending (ISB) and the indentation fracture (IF). Comparative measurements, performed on samples prepared by sintering uniaxially pressed powders obtained by a chemical route, showed that whatever the technique used, KIc increased as the Al 2O 3 grain size decreased. The three methods give similar results if some procedural improvements are introduced, namely: (i) the polished samples are annealed prior to testing: (ii) a more reproducible notching technique would be developed for the SENB method; and (iii) the crack shape and length are known exactly in the IF technique. In the IF test, the crack shape profile is of Palmquist type at low indentation loads while a transition to a half-penny-shaped crack occurs at higher loads. 相似文献

The microstructure and mechanical properties of ZrO 2-2 mol% Y 2O 3 ceramics were studied on samples prepared by cold isostatic pressing and pressureless sintering. It was shown that the density of the alloy increases with increasing sintering temperature. The Vickers hardness decreases with the appearance of the monoclinic phase and increasing its content. Compared with the single tetragonal phase, the (t + m) dual-phase structure with microcracks has a much higher fracture toughness (16·5 MPa√m) because of a complex mechanism of toughening (transformation, microcracks and residual stresses). 相似文献

Functionally pore-gradient Al 2O 3–ZrO 2 composites where the porosity is dependent on the extrusion ratio and number of shell layer were fabricated by a fibrous monolithic process. The size and volume fraction of the pores were controlled by different numbers of shell layers, which contained various sizes and a different volume percentage of the pore-forming agent. In the pore-gradient, Al 2O 3–ZrO 2 bodies having a dense core part, some defects such as cracks, swelling and delamination occurred during the sintering process due to the low extrusion ratio. However, these defects were completely removed as the extrusion ratio increased, and the shell layers as well as the core part had a continuously porous structure. In the shell part, various sizes of pores from 70 to 250 μm in diameter were observed. 相似文献

In this work, a ceramic composite of ZrW 2O 8 and ZrO 2 was synthesized, in order to investigate the possibility of compensating the positive thermal expansion of ZrO 2 with the negative thermal expansion (NTE) compound ZrW 2O 8, tailoring the thermal expansion of these composites. The NTE material was mixed with varying amounts of ZrO 2. The thermal expansion coefficients of this series of composites decrease with increasing amounts of ZrW 2O 8. Nevertheless, a negative deviation from the values expected by the rule of mixtures was found to be most pronounced in the middle of the compositional region. 相似文献

Mullite ceramics were fabricated at relatively low temperatures from powder mixtures of -Al 2O 3 and quartz, with an Y 2O 3 addition. The mullitization process was analyzed by X-ray diffraction. The densification behavior was investigated as a function of the Y 2O 3 content, sintering temperature and holding time as well as mullite seeds. It has been shown that mullitization occurs via a nucleation and growth mechanism within an yttrious aluminosilicate glass, but lattice and grain-boundary diffusion becomes important during the densification process. Moreover, the incorporation of mullite seeds was observed to enhance both mullitization and densification. At 1400°C for 5 h or 1450°C for 2 h, 15 mol% Y 2O 3-doped and 5 mol% mullite-seeded specimens can be sintered to almost full density. 相似文献

The phase diagram of the Al 2O 3–Y 2O 3 system has been investigated with five different compositions by XRD and in situ high temperature neutron diffractometry. High purity YAG, YAP and YAM compounds have been produced successfully through a melt extraction technique. High temperature neutron diffraction has made it possible to follow, in real time, the reactions involved in this system, especially to determine the temperature range of each reaction, which would have been impossible to determine by other means. A good agreement between the experimental results and the phase diagram of the Al 2O 3–Y 2O 3 system has been observed. 相似文献
