        The effect of SiC content, additives, and process parameters on densification and microstructural properties of pressureless sintered ZrB2– (1–10 wt %) SiC particulate composites have been studied. The ZrB2–SiC composite powders mixed by Spex mixer with 1-2wt% C (added as graphite powder) and CMC have been cold-compacted and sintered in argon environment in the temperature range of 1800–2100ºC for 2hs. The amount of densification is found to increase with sintering duration and by prior holding at 1200-1650ºC for reduction of oxide impurities (ZrO2, B2O3 and SiO2) on powder particle surfaces via the formation of new phases such as ZrSi2 and ZrC in the system. Presence of SiC with average size smaller than that of ZrB2 appears to aid in densification by enhancing green density, increasing C content by erosion of milling media, and inhibiting matrix grain growth. Both of SiC and C appear to aid in reduction of oxide impurities. The shrinkage of samples was measured, and the microstructure of samples was examined using X-Ray Diffraction and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), equipped with EDS spectroscopy. Room temperature mechanical properties were examined. Sintering temperature has a great effect on relative density, porosity, water absorption, hardness, fracture toughness, oxidation resistance, Strength and microstructure of these composites. The highest relative density, (99.65%), was obtained in ZrB2–10wt. %SiC–2 wt. %C composites sintered at 2000ºC for 2hs. پرونده مقاله

        Pyroplastic deformation is a distortion of the ceramic shape during the sintering process. It occurs because the flow of the vitreous phase at high temperature and the applied stress due to the weight of the product during sintering process. The aim of this paper deals with describing a numerical-experimental method to evaluate the pyroplastic deformation, to predict the anisotropic shrinkage and heterogeneous densification for ceramic materials during the liquid phase sintering process, as a function of sintering time. For this purpose, three experimental configurations including midpoint deflection, sinter bending and free sintering test were designed; the finite element method are implemented by the CREEP user subroutine code in ABAQUS. The fair accordance between simulation results and experimental data reveals that the shear and bulk viscosity modulus as well as dynamic viscosity used in the simulation are near the real ones. The anisotropic shrinkage factor K_xy has been proposed to investigate the shrinkage anisotropy. It has been shown that the shrinkage along the normal axis of slip casting is about 1.5 times larger than that of casting direction. The inhomogeneity in Von-Misses, pressure, and principal stress intensifies the density non-uniformity in the samples. پرونده مقاله

        کامپوزیت‌های دما بالای دی‌بورید زیرکونیم-کاربید سیلیسیم تقویت شده با مقادیر متفاوت افزودنی نانو گرافیت (0، 5/2، 5، 5/7 و 10 درصد وزنی) با روش تفجوشی پلاسمای جرقه‌ای تولید و برای تعیین تاثیر نانو ورقه‌های گرافیتی روی رفتار چگالش کامپوزیت بررسی شدند. تفجوشی پلاسمای جرقه‌ای در دمای 1900 درجه سانتی گراد به مدت زمان 7 دقیقه و با اعمال فشار 40 مگاپاسکال، به ساخت کامپوزیت چگال دی‌بورید زیرکونیم-کاربید سیلیسیم تقویت شده با 5 درصد وزنی نانوگرافیت (با چگالی نسبی 6/100 درصد) منجر شد. زدایش ناخالصی‌های اکسیدی به واسطه واکنش‌های احیایی آنها با گرافیت و تشکیل فازهای زیر میکرونی رخ داد. همچنین تشکیل فاز درجای کاربید زیرکونیم از دلایل افزایش چگالی این کامپوزیتها شناخته شد. پرونده مقاله
