Abstract: | The interfacial reactions of B4C-coated and C-coated SiC fiber reinforced Ti–43Al–9V composites were investigated by scanning electron microscope and transmission electron microscope. The detailed microstructures as well as the chemical composition throughout the reaction zone were identified. For SiCf/B4C/TiAl composite, the reaction zone from B4C coating to TiAl matrix is composed of 4 layers, namely, a carbon-rich layer, a mixed layer of TiB2 + amorphous carbon, a TiC layer and a mixed layer of TiB + Ti2AlC. For SiCf/C/TiAl composite, the reaction zone from C coating to TiAl matrix is composed of 3 layers, namely, a fine-grained TiC layer, a coarse-grained TiC layer and a thick Ti2AlC layer. For both kinds of composites, the reaction mechanisms of the interfacial reactions were analyzed, and the corresponding reaction kinetics were calculated. The activation energies of interfacial reaction in SiCf/B4C/TiAl composite and SiCf/B4C/TiAl composite are 308.1 kJ/mol and 230.7 kJ/mol, respectively. |
