Problems solved by technology

In order to improve hot pressing performance, it is often necessary to select a suitable sintering aid (such as CrB 2 , VB, ZrO 2 , metal, etc.), but the efficiency of this method is too low, the cost is high, and the amount of sintering aid is too large, which has a negative impact on the high-temperature performance of zirconium boride ceramics
[0005] The main problems faced by the application of zirconium diboride bulk materials are that it is difficult to produce dense sintered bodies, easy to oxidize in high temperature environments, and the relative strength is not high, which limits the application field of zirconium diboride bulk materials
[0007] To prepare zirconium diboride bulk materials, traditional pressureless sintering and hot-press sintering require high temperatures, and it is difficult to obtain dense sintered bodies, which affects the performance of materials and limits the quality of zirconium diboride bulk materials. scope of application

Abstract

The invention refers to a method for preparation of zirconium diboride block material. The method is about a discharging plasma sinter high-integrity zirconium diboride block material, the character is lies in it includes steps as follows: directly posting coated format ZrB2 in graphite mould, and then putting mould in discharging plasma sintering furnace, applying axial pressure of 10- 50MPa, adopting vacuum condition or interia atmosphere which vacuum degree is less than 10Pa, sintering in sintered temperature of 1600- 2200Deg C, heating-up with rate of 50-500Deg C/min, heat preserving for 1-30min, cooling under 1300Deg C with cooling rate of 10-100Deg C/min, finally furnace cooling to room temperature, getting high degree of compactness zirconium diboride block material. The produced zirconium diboride block materials have high degree of compactness, hardness, high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance capability.
