| Abstract: | A process combining electrophoretic deposition (EPD) with hot pressing (HP) was developed to fabricate continuous carbon fiber-reinforced ZrB2-based composites (Cf/ZrB2-based composites). ZrB2-based ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) particles were uniformly pre-coated on continuous carbon fibers via EPD. Then, the UHTC-coated carbon fibers were stacked and hot pressed to prepare the Cf/ZrB2-based composites. Microstructure observations revealed that almost no micro-pores were found in the inter-bundle and intra-bundle regions of fibers after HP. The flexural strength, fracture toughness and the work of fracture of the Cf/ZrB2-based composite were measured as 199 ± 26 MPa, 6.71 ± 1.29 MPa·m1/2, and 754 ± 58 J/m2, respectively. Based on the observations of non-brittle fracture behavior, fractured morphology and crack propagation, the enhanced fracture properties were mainly attributed to the multiple toughening mechanisms, such as fiber pull-out, fiber bridging, crack deflection and branching along the interfaces. |
