Mullite coatings were prepared on C/C-SiC composites surface by pulse arc discharge deposition using mullite powder as source materials. Phase composites and microstructures of the as-prepared mullite coatings were characterized by XRD and SEM. Deposition kinetics and influence of pulse frequency on the phase composites and microstructures were investigated. The results indicate that the outer layer is composed of mullite phase, density and homogeneity of the mullite coatings are achieved when the pulse frequency reaches 2000 Hz. The deposition amount of the mullite coatings also increases with increasing deposition temperature. The deposition mass of the coatings and the square root of the deposition time at different deposition temperatures according to linear relationship, and the deposition activation energy is calculated to be 32.24 kJ/mol.

This paper describes the development of a model for predicting the thermal decomposition rates of aviation fuels. A thermal deposition model was incorporated into FLANELS-2D, an existing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code that solves the Reynolds-averaged conservation equations of mass, momentum, and energy. The decomposition chemistry is modeled by three global Arrhenius expressions in which the fuel decomposition was assumed to be due to an autoxidation reaction with dissolved oxygen. The deposition process was modeled by assuming that all deposit-forming species transported to the wall adhered and formed a deposit. Calibration of the model required the determination of the following parameters for a given fuel: (1) the pre-exponential constant and activation energy for the wall reaction, (2) the pre-exponential constant and activation energy for the bulk autoxidation reaction, and (3) the pre-exponential constant and activation energy for the precursor decomposition reaction. Values for these parameters were estimated using experimental data from published heated-tube experiments. Results show that the FLANELS-2D code performed well in estimating the fuel temperatures and that the three-equation chemistry model performed reasonably well in accounting for both the rate of deposition and the amount of dissolved oxygen present in the fuel at the end of the heated tube.

As to traditional single electrode free welding arc, changes about energy density of the ionizing region in the center of arc column is not obvious with current increases due to structural limitations. In this paper, we developed parallel multi-electrode arc discharge torch which is based on the mechanism of self-magnetic contraction effect in welding arc, the torch effectively improve energy density of ionization region in non-melting inert gas arc, which is proved by experiments, and we discussed, effect of the pulse input energy and pulse frequency to energy density of the arc with parallel multi-electrode torch. This study demonstrated the approach of improving the energy density of arc ionizing region by self-magnetic pinch effect is feasible.

Porous anorthite/mullite composite ceramics with different mullite content were fabricated by foam-gelcasting, using CaCO3, SiO2, α-Al2O3as raw material for anorthite phase and mullite powder for mullite phase. Effects of mullite powder content on bulk density, porosity, compressive strength and thermal conductivity of the porous composite ceramics were researched. It has been shown that mullite powder content has great effect on microstructure and properties of the porous anorthite⁄mullite composite ceramics. The open porosity of the prepared porous anorthite⁄mullite composite ceramics is in the range of 58.7 %~77.5 %, the compressive strength is between 4.2 and 30.9 MPa, and the thermal conductivity is in the range of 0.18 ~1.47 W⁄(m·K).

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) coatings were prepared by a hydrothermal electrodeposition method on Carbon/carbon (C/C) composites. The as-prepared HAp coatings were characterized by XRD and SEM analyses. The influence of hydrothermal temperature on the phase and surface microstructures of HAp coatings and the corresponding deposition kinetics were particularly investigated. Results show that with the increase of hydrothermal temperature, the crystallinity, density and homogenous of the prepared HAp coatings are improved. The deposition rate also increases with the increase of hydrothermal temperature. The deposition activation energy of HAp coatings by the hydrothermal electrodeposition process is calculated to be 25.89 kJ/mol.

To effectively improve the properties of a mullite coating and its interfacial bonding with the substrate, a Ni–P layer is deposited on the surface of mullite powders by electroless plating. The original mullite powders and coated mullite powders are then deposited onto stainless-steel substrates by plasma spraying. The growth mechanism of the Ni–P layer during the plating, the microstructures of the coated powders and mullite coating and the properties of the mullite coatings are characterized and analyzed. The results indicate that the Ni–P layer on the surface of the mullite powder has cell structures with a dense uniform distribution and grows in layers on the surface of the mullite powder. The crystallization behavior of Ni-P amorphous layer is induced by heat treatment. Compared to the original mullite coating, the coating prepared by the coated mullite powders has better manufacturability, stronger adhesion to the substrate, lower porosity (7.40%, 65% of that of the original coating), higher hardness (500.1 HV, 1.2 times that of the original coating), and better thermal cycle resistance (two times that of the original coating). The method of preparation of high-temperature thermal barrier coatings with coated mullite powders has a high application value.

Submicrometer spherical particles of mullite powder were synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis of emulsion and solutions, using tetra-ethyl-orthosilicate (TEOS) or silicic-acid and Al(NO3)3 · 9H2O as initial compounds. Crystallization of mullite phase was determined by differential thermal (DT), thermogravimetric (TG), infrared (IR), and x-ray analyses. The synthesis of mullite from TEOS emulsion occurs by crystallization of γ–Al2O3 (or Al, Si-spinel) from the amorphous phase and its subsequent reaction with amorphous SiO2, as well as by crystallization of pseudotetragonal mullite below 1000 °C and its subsequent phase transformation into orthorhombic mullite. In the powders produced from silicic acid solutions, synthesis of mullite occurs only by crystallization of γ–Al2O3 between 900 and 1000 °C and its further reaction with amorphous SiO2 between 1100 and 1200 °C. Particle formation mechanism depended directly on the initial emulsion or solution preparation, i.e., on the phase separation in the emulsion and on the silicic-acid crosslinking conditions.

The conversion of the liquid polycabosilane (LPCS) into silicon carbide was investigated by IR, XRD, which indicated the feasibility of the transition from LPCS to SiC ceramics above 900°C. The FTIR spectra and XRD Pattern of the Cf/SiC composites show that the matrix deposited at 1200°C has silicon carbide structure with the crystallite size of β-SiC phase of about 41 nm, while the SiC phase is amorphous at 900°C. The carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide composites (Cf/SiC) were hereby prepared at 900°C and 1200°C, through chemical liquid-vapor deposition (CLVD) process using LPCS as precursor. Flexural strength of 224 MPa for Cf/SiC specimen with density of 1.81g·cm-3was obtained after being prepared at 1200°C for 30 minutes. The load-deflection curve has shown that the fracture behavior of the Cf/SiC composites is a typical non-brittleness. The results indicate that the CLVD process has a great advantage and prospect to prepare Cf/SiC composites in future.
