Abstract The fibers reinforced thin architectural ceramic plate of 900 mm×1800 mm×2.5 mm with high mechanical property was prepared by a fast-sintering method with a controllable fiber dispersion process. The effects of ball-milling time to the dispersity, average length-diameter ratio and microstructure of alumina fibers were investigated respectively. Meanwhile, the alumina fiber contents to the volume density, water absorption, phase transformation and microstructure of the thin ceramic plate were researched. It is found that the two-steps ball-milling process can control the average length-diameter ratio of the alumina fibers effectively and achieve a well dispersion mixture of fibers and ceramic powders, the fast-sintering method is beneficial for the protection of fiber/matrix interface. The trend of the volume density and bending strength increases with the fiber content from 0 wt% to 5 wt% and then decreases with the fiber content from 5 wt% to 15 wt%. The bending strength of this composite reaches the maximum value of 146.8 MPa with the fiber content is 5 wt%, which is corresponding to the strengthening of alumina fibers and the formation of mullite crystallization in fiber/matrix interface and matrix during the fast-sintering process.

Sintering Method

An Fe/FeAl2O4 composite was prepared with Fe-Fe2O3-Al2O3 powder by a hot press sintering method. The mass ratio was 6:1:2, sintering pressure was 30 MPa, and holding time was 120 min. The raw materials for the powder particles were respectively 1 µm (Fe), 0.5 µm (Fe2O3), and 1 µm (Al2O3) in diameter. The effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Fe/FeAl2O4 composite was studied. The results showed that Fe/FeAl2O4 composite was formed by in situ reaction at 1300 °C–1500 °C. With the increased sintering temperature, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Fe/FeAl2O4 composite showed a change law that initially became better and then became worse. The best microstructure and optimal mechanical properties were obtained at 1400 °C. At this temperature, the grain size of Fe and FeAl2O4 phases in Fe/FeAl2O4 composite was uniform, the relative density was 96.7%, and the Vickers hardness and bending strength were 1.88 GPa and 280.0 MPa, respectively. The wettability between Fe and FeAl2O4 was enhanced with increased sintering temperature. And then the densification process was accelerated. Finally, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Fe/FeAl2O4 composite were improved.

The ZrC/SiC multi-components modified C/C composites were prepared by using a hybrid precursor containning polycarbosilane and organic zirconium-contained polymeric precursor as impregnant and C/C composites of low density as preform. The porosity, microstructure and mechanical properties of samples were characterized with mercury injection apparatus, scanning electron microscopy and universal electron testing machine respectively. The results show that the porosity and average pore diameter decrease firstly and increase subsequently with the increase of organic zirconium content of the precursor. When the content of organic zirconium is 50%, the porosity and average pore diameter reach minimum which were7.27% and 0.0795um respectively. The most probabilistic pore diameter shifted from 10-100um to 1-10um at the same time; Meanwhile, the flexural properties also increases and drops immediately as the content of organic zirconium in the precursor adds. When the content of organic zirconium is 25%, the flexural strength reaches maximum of 245.20MPa.The improved flexural properties is attributed to the proper bonding of fiber-matrix interface and the low porosity of samples.

The problems encountered to tailor simultaneously various specific chemical or physical properties are discussed. Selected polymeric precursors used in association with fine powders allow the control of the nano/microstructure of composites and hence the preparation of functional (FGM) and hierarchical reinforced (HRC) composites, making it possible to combine several kinds of fibers, interphases, and matrices in the same composite (hot microwave absorbent), to control the fiber/matrix interface (long life times composites), to achieve net-shape sintering of 3D composite matrices, and to prepare thick films of metal-ceramic composites with tailored microwave absorption (radar stealthiness).

Abstract The paper elucidates the methods of estimating damping in ceramic matrix composites (CMC) with matrix cracks. Unidirectional composites with bridging matrix cracks and cross-ply laminates with tunneling cracks in transverse layers and bridging cracks in longitudinal layers are considered. It is shown that bridging matrix cracks may dramatically increase damping in unidirectional CMC due to a dissipation of energy along damaged sections of the fiber-matrix interface (interfacial friction). Such friction is absent in the case of tunneling cracks in transverse layers of cross-ply laminates where the changes in damping due to a degradation of the stiffness remain small. However, damping in cross-ply laminates abruptly increases if bridging cracks appear in the longitudinal layers.
