Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to a preparation method of high-strength SiC-based composite ceramic material and belongs to the field of composite material preparation. BACKGROUND

[0002] SiC ceramic has a wide application in the industrial fields of petroleum chemical industry, aerospace, energy and environmental protection, and mechanical and electronic industries due to low density, high elastic modulus, high strength, low thermal expansion coefficient, excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance. However, since silicon carbide is a stable compound with strong covalent bond, has low thermal diffusion coefficient and is difficult to sinter and densify, and the silicon carbide ceramic has defects of brittleness, crack and short service life, the application of the silicon carbide ceramic is limited. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new type of high-density and high-strength silicon carbide ceramic.

[0003] Tungsten carbide (WC) has similar hardness to diamond, good toughness, high chemical stability, strong impact load resistance and friction and abrasion resistance. However, the density of WC is 15.63 g / cm 3 , which is much larger than the density of SiC ceramic 3.20 g / cm 3 , thereby limiting the application range of WC. The excellent mechanical properties of WC can effectively increase the strength and toughness of SiC ceramic. Chinese patent document 1 (publication number CN102173823A) discloses a silicon carbide / tungsten carbide composite material and a preparation method thereof. The composite powder is prepared by wrapping SiC with WC, but is limited to be used for reinforcing a metal matrix. Chinese patent document 2 (publication number CN101823882A) prepares a silicon carbide-tungsten carbide composite material with adjustable density, which is very suitable for being used as an iron-based reinforcing phase. However, the reinforcing effect of tungsten carbide as a second phase of the material cannot be reflected. Chinese patent document 3 (publication number CN106242574A) discloses a tungsten carbide-based composite ceramic mold material and a preparation method thereof. The material has excellent fracture toughness, bending strength and friction reduction performance. However, the mass percentage of tungsten carbide in the preparation method is much larger than that of silicon carbide, resulting in high density of the material. Chinese patent document 4 (publication number CN109809822A) adds tungsten carbide to prepare a high-strength and high-toughness silicon carbide ceramic carrier disc. However, the density of the material is not high. Therefore, it is an urgent problem to be solved by the application to prepare high-strength SiC-based composite ceramic material by using the low-density performance of silicon carbide and the excellent mechanical properties of tungsten carbide. SUMMARY

[0004] Therefore, the application provides a preparation method of high-strength SiC-based composite ceramic material, which comprises the following steps.

[0005] (1) mixing SiC powder, WC powder, an aluminum source and a carbon source to obtain a mixed powder;

[0006] (2) hot-press sintering the mixed powder to obtain the high-strength SiC-based composite ceramic material.

[0007] In the present application, WC is used as an excellent second-phase reinforcing body to prepare a high-strength SiC-based composite ceramic material by hot-press sintering. In the present application, Al enters the SiC crystal lattice by solid solution to reduce the grain boundary energy. Meanwhile, Al also has a deoxidizing effect, and with the increase of the content of WC, the solid solution effect is weakened and the deoxidizing effect is enhanced.

[0008] Preferably, the SiC powder is α-SiC powder with a particle size of ≤1 μm, and the WC powder has a particle size of ≤2 μm.

[0009] Preferably, the total mass of the SiC powder, the WC powder, the aluminum source and the carbon source is taken as 100 wt%, wherein the SiC powder accounts for 44% to 88%, and the WC powder accounts for 10% to 50%.

[0014] Preferably, the grinding balls used in the ball-milling mixing are composed of large silicon carbide balls and small silicon carbide balls in a mass ratio of (0.1 to 10) : 1, wherein the large silicon carbide balls have a diameter of 10 mm to 30 mm, and the small silicon carbide balls have a diameter of 1 mm to 5 mm.

[0015] In addition, preferably, after the ball-milling mixing is completed, the mixed powder is subjected to drying and sieving treatment; the drying is performed at a temperature of 60 to 70 °C for 24 to 36 h; and the sieving is performed through a 80- to 200-mesh sieve.

[0016] Preferably, the parameters of the hot-press sintering include: a pressure of 30 to 40 MPa, a temperature of 2000 to 2150 °C, and a time of 30 to 60 min.

[0017] In addition, preferably, the parameters of the hot-press sintering include:

[0018] First, raise the temperature to 600-700℃ at a heating rate of 15-25℃ / min, and adjust the pressure to 10-20MPa;

[0019] Then raise the temperature to 1000℃~1100℃ at a heating rate of 15~25℃ / min;

[0020] When the heating rate is adjusted to 8-12℃ / min and the temperature is further increased to 1500-1800℃, the pressure is adjusted to 30-40MPa.

[0021] Adjust the heating rate to 5-7℃ / min and continue heating to 2000-2150℃, then hold the temperature and pressure for 30-60 minutes.

[0022] Finally, the furnace was cooled to room temperature and depressurized.

[0023] Beneficial effects:

[0024] 1. This invention uses a carbothermal reduction method to remove silicon oxide from the surface of SiC powder to obtain densified sintered silicon carbide ceramics;

[0025] 2. This invention utilizes the excellent mechanical properties of WC and the low density of SiC ceramics to enable WC / SiC composite ceramic materials to achieve relatively low density and high flexural strength and fracture toughness.

The method is simple and easy to operate, has a short preparation cycle, is highly practical, has low cost, and can be scaled up, which is beneficial for industrial production. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Figure 1 The image shows the XRD pattern of the SiC-WC composite ceramic. SiC and WC are the main phases present in all samples, with trace amounts of carbon also present.

[0028] Figure 2 The images show SEM images and corresponding EDS mappings of SiC-WC-40. Aggregation of aluminum elements can be observed in the EDS. Furthermore, the distributions of O and Al elements are very well matched; the SEM images show that O elements are bonded to Al at the grain boundaries. This indicates that the Al added to the sample acts as a deoxidizer.

[0029] Figure 3 The figures show the XPS Al2p spectra of (a) SiC-WC-0 and (b) SiC-WC-40. From the figures, we can see that the Al2p spectra... Figure 3 The value in (a) can be fitted to two peaks at 73.29 and 74.93 eV, which correspond to the Al-C bonds of Al solid solution entering the SiC lattice and the Al-O bonds of Al2O3 generated by Al deoxidation.Figure 3 The peak at 74.76 eV can be fitted in the middle (b), which is attributed to Al-O bond. The XPS results show that with the addition of WC, the solid solution (Al-C bond) disappears, and all the Al elements react with the oxides (SiO2, WO3) to form Al2O3 (Al-O);

[0030] Figure 4 The SEM images of the crack propagation of the Ar+ etched surface of SiC-WC composite materials. In the sample SiC-WC-50, the deviation and bridging of WC particles and the stopping of cracks by WC particles can be seen. However, in monolithic SiC, the crack extends rapidly, and grain penetration fracture is observed. This shows that WC as a second phase particle can increase crack deflection and bridging, which well inhibits crack propagation and improves the fracture toughness of the composite ceramic;

[0031] Figure 5 The Raman spectra of SiC and SiC-50wt%WC samples. From the figure, it can be seen that the W-O bond is generated on the wear surface of the SiC-50wt%WC sample, indicating that the SiO2 film on the wear surface is converted into a WO3 film;

From Figure 6 The profile in (c) shows that the wear rate of the SiC-WC-50 sample is significantly lower than that of monolithic SiC ceramic. The specific wear rate Figure 6 (d) in (c) decreases from 15.23 x 10 -7 mm 3 -N -1 -m -1 to 6.67 x 10 -7 mm 3 -N -1 -m -1 , a decrease of 56.2%;

[0033] Figure 7 The XRD pattern of SiC-WC-10 with Al and B4C as sintering aids. From the figure, it can be seen that the sample with B4C has a W2B5 peak, indicating that the B element in WC and B4C reacts to form W2B5, thereby reducing the performance of the material;
