The Fe/FeAl2O4 cermet was prepared with Fe-Fe2O3-Al2O3 powder by a hot press sintering method at 1400 °C. The raw materials for the powder particles were respectively 2 µm (Fe), 0.5 µm (Fe2O3), and 0.5 µm (Al2O3) in diameter, the sintering pressure was 30 MPa, and the holding time was 120 min. The effects of different Fe mass ratios on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Fe/FeAl2O4 cermet were studied. The results showed that a new ceramic phase FeAl2O4 could be formed by an in situ reaction during the hot press sintering. When the Fe mass ratio was increased, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Fe/FeAl2O4 cermet showed a change law that initially became better and then became worse. The best microstructure and mechanical properties were obtained in the S2 sample, where the mass ratio of Fe-Fe2O3-Al2O3 was 6:1:2. In this Fe mass ratio, the relative density was about 94%, and the Vickers hardness and bending strength were 1.21 GPa and 210.0 MPa, respectively. The reaction mechanism of Fe in the preparation process was the in situ synthesis reaction of FeAl2O4 and the diffusion reaction of Fe to FeAl2O4 grains. The increase of the Fe mass ratio improved the wettability of Fe and FeAl2O4, which increased the diffusion rate of Fe to FeAl2O4 grains, which increased the influence on the structure of FeAl2O4.

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 sintering behavior and the resulting of cermet are influenced not only by the characteristics and impurities of the raw materials but also are found to be dependent on the thermal history during the fabrication process. Our work is concerned with the effect of sintering temperature on the mechanical properties of 17Ni/(10NiO-NiFe2O4) cermet. The nickel ferrite based cermet were prepared by hot-press sintering technology at 16MPa and sintered at temperatures ranging from 900 to 1200°C. The microstructure, phase compositions and mechanical properties were studied by SEM, XRD and three point bending strength tests respectively. It has been found that, the relative density, hardness and bending strength of NiFe2O4 based cermet have a great influence upon the sintering temperature, and an optimal sintering temperature, e.g. 1100°C is chosen through our experiments. The highest bending strength of 125.89Mpa could be obtained under the sintering temperature of 1100°C. Meanwhile, the thermal shock resistance increases as the sintering temperature increases.

Fully dense (ZrB2+ZrC)/Zr3[Al (Si)]4C6 composites with ZrB2 content varying from 0 to 15 vol.% and fixed ZrC content of 10 vol.% were successfully prepared by in situ hot-pressing in Ar atmosphere using ZrH2, Al, Si, C and B4C as raw materials. With the increase of ZrB2 content, both the bending strength and fracture toughness of the composites increase and then decrease. The synergistic action of ZrB2 and ZrC as reinforcements shows significant strengthening and toughing effect to the Zr3[Al (Si)]4C6 matrix. The composite with 10 vol.% ZrB2 shows the optimal mechanical properties: 516 MPa for bending strength and 6.52 MPa·m1/2 for fracture toughness. With the increase of ZrB2 content, the Vickers hardness of the composites shows a near-linear increase from 15.3 GPa to 16.7 GPa. The strengthening and toughening effect can be ascribed to the unique mechanical properties of ZrB2 and ZrC reinforcements, the differences in coefficient of thermal expansion and modulus between them and Zr3[Al (Si)]4C6 matrix, fine grain strengthening and uniform microstructure derived by the in situ synthesis reaction.

Al2O3-MgO, Al2O3-Y2O3 and Al2O3-MgO-Y2O3 composite ceramics were fabricated respectively by hot-press sintering technique. With the analysis of the mechanical properties and microstructure, it was found that single additive MgO could be more favorable to the grains’ refinement and densification than Y2O3; the composite additive including both MgO and Y2O3 was better than single additive MgO or Y2O3, because their interactions could improve the mechanical properties of the Al2O3 ceramics; The sintering temperature could be reduced by adding the suitable amount of composite additives.

Hot Press Sintering

The ZrC-W composites with iron as sintering additive were fabricated by hot-press sintering. The densification, microstructure and mechanical properties of the composites were investigated. The incorporation of Fe beneficially promotes the densification of ZrC-W composites. The relative density of the composite sintered at 1900°C can attain 95.3%. W2C phase is also found in the ZrC-W composite sintered at 1700°C. The content of W2C decreases with the increase of sintering temperature. However, W2C phase is not identified in the composite sintered at 1900°C. The flexural strength and fracture toughness of the composites are strongly dependent on sintering temperature. The flexural strength and fracture toughness of ZrC-W composite sintered at optimized temperature of 1800°C are 438 MPa and 3.99 MPa·m1/2, respectively.

Properties Of Composites

SiC-TiB2/B4C composites were fabricated by hot-press sintering B4C with silicon powder and tetrabutyl titanate (precursor of TiO2) as sintering and reinforcement agents. The influence of additives on hot-press sintering densification, microstructure and properties of composites were studied. The results showed that TiB2 and SiC generated by chemical reaction between additives and B4C matrix reinforced the sintering activity of the mixed powders and accelerated significantly the hot-press sintering densification rate of B4C from 1200 °C to 1700 °C. According to the SEM observation, the second phase of TiB2 and SiC particles synthetized in situ sited along the grain boundaries of B4C, meanwhile, those SiC particles of nanoscale size embedded into the B4C grains, and thereby, intra/inter-type ceramics formed. The maximum relative density of 98.1% was obtained with 9wt.% TiO2. The typical valus of Vickers hardness, bending strength and fracture toughness can reach 26.7 GPa, 580 MPa and 5.0 MPam1/2, respectively.

Nano-Fe particles coating Al2O3 composite powders were prepared by heterogeneous precipitation method with nanometer -Al2O3 and Fe(NO3)3•9H2O as raw materials. The composite powders were analyzed by DSC-TG, XRD,SEM and Zeta potential. Results showed that Fe coating Al2O3 nanometer composite powders were obtained in the condition of being sintered at 500°C for 30min and reduced at 700°C for 1h in H2. The coating Fe nanometer particles are in the shape of sphericity with diameter about 30nm and the dispersion of the powders is uniform. Al2O3/Fe composite ceramics were obtained by hot-pressing (30MPa). The mechanical properties of the composite were investigated after hot press at different temperatures. With the increasing of Fe content in composite ceramics, the hardness of the composite is decreased. Fracture toughness of 10mol%Fe content is 5.62MPa after sintered at 1400°C, which is increasing 57% high than that of monolithic Al2O3 ceramics.
