Embodiment 1

[0027] In this example, an alumina composite ceramic material for bulletproof armor toughened by silicon carbide whiskers with a volume fraction of silicon carbide whiskers of 30% was prepared. The raw materials used mainly include silicon carbide whiskers (average diameter 1μm, length range 10-100μm), alumina powder (average particle size 20nm), yttrium oxide powder (average particle size 30nm), deionized water, hydroxypropyl methyl Base cellulose powder (average particle size 180 μ m), polyvinyl alcohol, sodium lauryl sulfate and DarvanCN dispersant, Darvan CN dispersant is the slurry dispersant produced by U.S. Vanderbilt Company (R.T.Vanderbilt). Concrete preparation process is as follows:

[0028]1) Weigh 768g of deionized water, 13g of silicon carbide whiskers and 35g of alumina powder into a 1L ball mill jar in sequence, and after stirring evenly, add 3.8g of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose powder and 7.7g of polyethylene Alcohol and 2.4g of DarvanCN dispersant, then add...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of composite materials for bulletproof armor, in particular to a silicon carbide whisker-toughened aluminum oxide composite ceramic material for bulletproof armor and a preparation method thereof. The composite ceramic material is composed of silicon carbide whiskers with a volume fraction of 5%-80% and aluminum oxide. Microscopically, the silicon carbide whiskers are preferentially arranged in an aluminum oxide matrix along a group of parallel planes. The preparation method of the composite ceramic material comprises the following steps: carrying out freezecasting and vacuum freeze drying treatment on water-based slurry containing the silicon carbide whiskers and the aluminum oxide powder to obtain a porous green body with an oriented lamellar structure, and sequentially carrying out pressure forming, organic matter removal and sintering densification treatment on the green body to obtain the aluminum oxide composite ceramic material toughened by the silicon carbide whiskers. The fracture toughness, impact toughness and repeated impact resistance of the composite ceramic material are remarkably improved compared with single silicon carbide ceramic and single aluminum oxide ceramic; and the composite ceramic material is expected to be applied to the field of bulletproof armor to effectively improve the protection capacity and durability of the bulletproof armor.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of composite materials for bulletproof armor, in particular to an alumina composite ceramic material for bulletproof armor toughened by silicon carbide whiskers and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of military science and technology in the world, bulletproof armor has been paid more and more attention by various countries. The research and development and production capacity of bulletproof armor materials is the embodiment of a country's military strength and an important guarantee for maintaining national security.
