Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of multi-component single-phase ultra-high temperature ceramic modified C / C composite materials, specifically involving a C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are a class of high-temperature materials with high melting points, high strength, high hardness, and excellent ablation resistance. They mainly include transition metal carbides, borides, and nitrides. Carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix composites (C / C composites) have advantages such as low density, small coefficient of thermal expansion, and mechanical properties that increase with increasing temperature. However, C / C composites are easily oxidized in environments exceeding 370°C, leading to a decline in their mechanical properties. Combining UHTCs and C / C composites helps retain the advantages of both, resulting in a modified material with good oxidation and ablation resistance and high-temperature mechanical properties.

[0003] Among ultra-high temperature ceramics, ZrC and HfC have attracted much attention in the field of ultra-high temperature ceramic ablation due to their excellent high-temperature stability. However, the oxide layers formed after high-temperature oxidation of HfC and ZrC ceramics are usually porous, which cannot effectively prevent oxygen from penetrating into the matrix. In addition, the phase transformation of oxides can lead to the accumulation of internal stress in the matrix, increasing the probability of crack formation. In recent years, researchers have adopted an effective solution to improve the integrity of the oxide film formed under high-temperature ablation by developing multi-component ultra-high temperature ceramics. The composite phase oxides formed after the oxidation of multi-component ceramics can not only increase the density of the oxide layer, but also suppress the phase transformation of single-phase oxides and reduce the generation of internal defects in the oxide layer.

[0004] The literature "Jinhua Lu, Kui Hao, Lei Liu, Hejun Li, Kezhi Li, Junling Qu, Xin Yan. Ablation resistance of SiC–HfC–ZrC multiphase modified carbon / carbon composites. Corrosion Science, 103(2016):1-6" reports a SiC–HfC–ZrC ternary multiphase ceramic modified C / C composite material. The study found that the material containing both ZrC and HfC exhibits superior ablation resistance compared to composites containing only ZrC or HfC. However, due to the differences in thermal expansion coefficients among the different ceramic phases, the multiphase ceramic modified C / C composite material is highly susceptible to interfacial cracks and other defects under high-temperature combustion gas erosion conditions, leading to catastrophic failure. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material and its preparation method, in order to solve the technical problem of interfacial cracks caused by multiple interfaces and mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients at high temperatures in multi-component ceramics.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution:

[0007] This invention discloses a method for preparing C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite materials, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1: The porous low-density C / C composite material was immersed in a ZrC-HfC-TiC ternary ceramic organic precursor solution and then vacuum dried to obtain the C / C composite material impregnated with the precursor.

[0009] S2: After drying the C / C composite material impregnated with the precursor, the dried C / C composite material impregnated with the precursor is obtained;

[0010] S3: Repeat steps S1 and S2 several times in sequence, wrap the dried C / C composite material impregnated with the precursor with graphite paper, and then perform heat treatment in an inert atmosphere;

[0011] S4: Repeat steps S1 to S3 several times to finally obtain the C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material.

[0012] Furthermore, the preparation method of the porous low-density C / C composite material is as follows:

[0013] Carbon felt was subjected to chemical vapor deposition (CVD) with hydrocarbon gas as the carbon source and Ar as the carrier and protective gas. After CVD, it was cooled in the furnace to obtain a porous low-density C / C composite material.

[0014] Furthermore, the preparation method of the ZrC-HfC-TiC ternary ceramic organic precursor solution is as follows:

[0015] ZrC precursor powder, HfC precursor powder and TiC precursor are mixed to obtain a mixed precursor; the mixed precursor is mixed with a solvent to obtain a mixed precursor solution; the mixed precursor solution is subjected to ultrasonic vibration to obtain a ZrC-HfC-TiC ternary ceramic organic precursor solution.

[0016] Further, the mass ratio of the mixed precursor to the solvent is (1-3):1; the solvent is xylene; the molar ratio of the ZrC precursor powder, HfC precursor powder and TiC precursor is (5-10):(5-10):(1-5);

[0017] The duration of the ultrasonic oscillation is 3 to 5 hours.

[0018] Furthermore, in S1, the process parameters for the vacuum drying process are: evacuate to -0.08 to -0.1 MPa and hold at that pressure for 20 to 30 minutes.

[0019] Furthermore, in S2, the drying temperature is 60–80°C.

[0020] Furthermore, in S3, the number of times steps S1 and S2 are repeated is three times; the process parameters for heat treatment under an inert atmosphere are: using an inert gas as a protective gas, heating to 1600-2100℃ at a rate of 3-5℃ / min, holding at that temperature for 1-3 hours, and then cooling to room temperature at a rate of 2-4℃ / min.

[0021] Furthermore, in S4, the number of times steps S1 to S3 are repeated sequentially is 8 to 11.

[0022] Furthermore, the density of the porous low-density C / C composite material is 1.0–1.3 g / cm³. 3 .

[0023] The present invention also discloses a C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material prepared by the above preparation method.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] This invention discloses a method for preparing C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material. The method involves repeatedly immersing a porous, low-density C / C composite material in a ZrC-HfC-TiC ternary ceramic organic precursor solution, followed by drying, and then heat treatment to obtain the C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material. This material fully utilizes the comprehensive ablation resistance of each component ceramic, solving the technical problem of interfacial cracks caused by the mismatch of thermal expansion coefficients at high temperatures in traditional materials. This is beneficial for extending the service life of C / C composite materials in extreme environments.

[0026] Furthermore, this method uses ZrC organic precursor PZC as the zirconium source, HfC organic precursor PHC as the hafnium source, tetrabutyl titanate as the titanium source, and xylene as the solvent. After thorough mixing, a ternary organic precursor solution is obtained. The various materials exert a synergistic effect, which improves the ablation resistance. Moreover, this method is simple to operate and can be applied to complex components, thus broadening the application field of ultra-high temperature ablation.

[0027] The present invention also discloses a C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material prepared by the above preparation method. According to relevant experimental data, after being ablated by an oxyacetylene flame for 90 seconds, the C / C-(Zr,Hf,Ti)C composite material forms a relatively dense oxide film at the ablation center, which blocks the erosion of the matrix by the high-temperature oxygen-containing flow. This proves that the introduction of the ternary single-phase solid solution ceramic (Zr,Hf,Ti)C can effectively improve the ablation resistance of the C / C composite material.
