Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of high-temperature microwave absorbing composite materials, and in particular to a high-throughput preparation and rapid screening method for multilayer ceramic matrix composite materials. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of radar detection technology, the stealth performance of aircraft is increasingly becoming a crucial factor affecting their safety and reliability. Material stealth, fundamentally speaking, is the most effective method to improve the stealth performance of aircraft. Ceramic matrix composites, with their excellent mechanical properties, thermal stability, and chemical stability, have significant application prospects in the field of high-temperature load-bearing and radar-absorbing materials for aerospace. In particular, multi-layered ceramic matrix composites, with matching layers, loss layers, and reflective layers, each with its own functional layer, possess the characteristics of "thinness, light weight, wide bandwidth, and frequency tunability," making them the most common and effective method for preparing broadband radar-absorbing, high-temperature resistant aircraft components.

[0003] Most reported multilayer ceramic matrix composites involve pre-designing prefabricated structures by stacking different types of fibers or according to corresponding layup structures, with one fiber prefabricated structure for each multilayer structure. The fiber prefabricated structure is then densified, and finally, the reflectivity of the ceramic matrix composite is tested. If the reflectivity of this multilayer structure is unsatisfactory, a new prefabricated structure and multilayer structure need to be designed. This method of preparing and screening one multilayer structure for one fiber layup significantly limits the feasible application of multilayer ceramic matrix composites. Furthermore, the preparation of one multilayer structure for one fiber prefabricated structure is time-consuming, and the cost of the composite material is constantly increasing. The preparation cycle becomes longer with the increasing number of multilayer structures requiring screening, which greatly restricts the development of multilayer ceramic matrix composites in the field of high-temperature broadband microwave absorption.

[0004] If the preparation cycle and cost can be reduced, and different multilayer structures can be tested quickly, and a suitable multilayer structure can be selected and its broadband absorption performance tested, it will be beneficial to promote the application of ceramic matrix composites in the field of high-temperature microwave absorption. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is that existing multilayer ceramic matrix composite materials require multiple molding processes, resulting in complex processes, long cycles, and high preparation costs. This ultimately leads to difficulties in rapidly screening multilayer structures that meet broadband microwave absorption performance requirements, resulting in high costs and long cycles. To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a high-throughput preparation and rapid screening method for multilayer ceramic matrix composite materials. The overall idea of ​​this method is to prepare ceramic matrix composite thin plates using a small number of different types of fiber preforms, prepare different multilayer structures through different layup sequences, test various multilayer structures, and finally screen out multilayer structures that meet broadband microwave absorption performance.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a high-throughput preparation and rapid screening method of multi-layer structure ceramic matrix composite materials.

[0007] The preparation and rapid screening method comprises the following steps:

[0008] Step 1: Preparation of ceramic matrix composite material sheets of different fiber types.

[0009] Degumming: 1-3 fibers in carbon fibers, silicon carbide fibers, and alumina fibers are woven into a fiber preform by two-dimensional weaving, 2.5-dimensional weaving, or three-dimensional weaving, with a volume fraction of 30%-60%.

[0010] Put the fiber preform into a muffle furnace, and raise the temperature from room temperature to 500-800℃ in 3-6 hours, keep the temperature for 1-2 hours, and then cool to room temperature in 5-10 hours, and take out the fiber preform.

[0011] First, densification is performed by chemical vapor deposition and then by precursor impregnation and pyrolysis, and the densification process is as follows:

[0012] CVI process (chemical vapor deposition): the fiber preform is clamped with a porous graphite mold with a pore size of 2-8 mm, and is tightened with carbon-carbon bolts. The fiber preform with the porous graphite mold is placed in a high-temperature deposition furnace, and NH3, BCl3, Ar, and H2 gas flow ratios of 60:(5-20):60:60 are introduced, the temperature is controlled at 1000-1200℃, the pressure is controlled at 1KPa-5KPa, the deposition time is 6-12 hours, and after the deposition is completed, it is taken out, and the preparation process needs to use a porous graphite mold to prevent the preform from deforming.

[0013] PIP process (precursor impregnation and pyrolysis): the fiber preform is placed in a vacuum impregnation tank, and then the vacuum impregnation tank is vacuumed, and the vacuuming time is 10-30 minutes, and the pressure is maintained below 1KPa.

[0014] Further, the precursor solution is poured into the vacuum impregnation tank, so that the fiber preform is fully impregnated with the precursor solution, and the vacuum impregnation time is 1-3 hours. The precursor solution is one of polycarbosilane solution, polysilazane solution, polysilazane solution, polysiloxane solution, and polyborazane solution.

[0015] Then, nitrogen protective gas is filled in the vacuum impregnation tank for pressure impregnation, and the pressure is maintained at 1-10MPa, and the pressure impregnation time is 2-4 hours.

[0016] After pressure impregnation, the nitrogen gas inside is released, and the fiber preform is taken out.

[0017] Drying: The fiber preform after taking out is put into a blast drying oven, and dried for 6-12 hours under the condition of constant temperature and constant pressure of 80-300℃.

[0018] High temperature pyrolysis: The dried fiber preform is put into a vacuum pyrolysis furnace, and heated from room temperature to 300℃ for 3-5 hours; at 300℃, heat preservation for 1-2 hours; after 3-5 hours from 300℃ to 500-1200℃, and heat preservation for 1-3 hours, and then cooled to room temperature for 5-10 hours.

[0019] After cooling, the prepared composite material is weighed and the density is calculated, and the density calculation refers to the density after removing the surface impurities of the fiber preform.

[0020] Repeat the steps of impregnation, drying, high temperature pyrolysis and cooling until the density difference between adjacent two times is not more than 0.05g / cm 3 , which indicates that the pores in the fiber preform have been basically filled completely, and the porous graphite mold needs to be used throughout the preparation process to prevent deformation.

[0021] The density of the adjacent two times refers to the density of the fiber preform after the last high temperature pyrolysis and the density of the fiber preform after this high temperature pyrolysis.

[0022] Second step: polishing and processing of the thin plate

[0023] The ceramic matrix composite plate after CVI process and PIP process is polished, and the thickness is polished to one of 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3mm, wherein the parallelism of the thin plate is less than or equal to 0.1, and the thin plate can be bonded only after the surface is polished flat.

[0024] Third step: preparation of adhesive.

[0025] The dispersant and the resin are stirred according to a certain proportion, and then ultrasonic for 1-2 hours for standby. The mass ratio of resin and dispersant in the adhesive is (10-50):(1-5). The resin is methylphenyl silicone resin or general silicone resin; the dispersant is sodium hydroxymethyl cellulose or sodium alkyl benzene sulfonate.

[0026] Fourth step: one-step forming of multi-layer structure.

[0027] The adhesive is applied on the ceramic matrix composite sheets of different fiber types, the sheets are laid in a multilayer structure ceramic matrix composite flat plate according to the order of a multilayer structure, the ceramic matrix composite is pressed to a thickness of 3-6 mm by a metal flat plate, and then the ceramic matrix composite is heated in an oven at 150-250 DEG C for 2 hours, and finally cooled to room temperature for 2-5 hours. The number of layers of the multilayer structure ceramic matrix composite is one of 2-12 layers, and each layer is combined in different orders to form a multilayer structure.

[0028] Step 5: test and reuse.

[0029] During the test of the reflectivity of the ceramic matrix composite in the corresponding frequency band by the bow method or the waveguide method, the front and back surfaces of the ceramic matrix composite need to be tested.

[0030] After the test is completed, the multilayer structure ceramic matrix composite flat plate is placed in an ultrasonic device containing anhydrous ethanol solution, and ultrasonic is performed at 30-50 DEG C for 1-2 hours, and then different types of ceramic matrix composite sheets are taken out to prepare for the test of other multilayer structures.

[0031] The dissolved ceramic matrix composite sheets of different fiber types are laid according to the order of another multilayer structure, the multilayer structure one-step forming step of step 4 is repeated, and the reflectivity of the multilayer structure ceramic matrix composite flat plate is further tested by the bow method or the waveguide method until all the multilayer structures are tested, the multilayer structure with the lowest reflectivity and the widest frequency band below-10 dB is selected as the required multilayer structure.

[0032] Another object of the present application is to provide a multilayer structure ceramic matrix composite obtained by the method of the above claims.

[0033] The ceramic matrix composite prepared by the present application has many advantages such as thin thickness, light weight, fast test speed, and reusability.

[0034] The present application can effectively solve the problems of the existing multilayer structure ceramic matrix composite, which needs multiple forming, complex process, long cycle, complex preparation and test, and long test cycle of the structure of the broadband wave-absorbing ceramic matrix composite.
