[0022] The realization of the objectives, functional features and advantages of this application will be further explained in conjunction with embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clear, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0024] A first embodiment of the present invention provides a composite material of a self-healing SiC fiber reinforced multiphase matrix in a wide temperature range, comprising a SiC fiber preform, on which a BN interface phase, a first SiC matrix, and an alternating matrix are sequentially deposited, and the alternating matrix is coated with a SiAlBCN matrix, wherein the alternating matrix comprises a B4C matrix, a BN matrix, and a second SiC matrix deposited sequentially.
[0025] The SiC fiber preform is a three-dimensional structure woven from SiC fibers, with gaps between the fibers. The BN interface phase, the first SiC matrix, the alternating matrix, and the SiAlBCN matrix are located within the gaps. The alternating matrix comprises n layers, with 1 ≤ n ≤ 3. The volume fraction of the SiC fiber preform is 35% to 42%, the volume fraction of the BN interface phase is 1% to 4%, and the thickness of the BN interface phase is 60 to 100 nm. The volume fraction of the first SiC matrix is 20% to 30%, the volume fraction of the alternating matrix is 8% to 27%, and the volume fraction of the SiAlBCN matrix is 6% to 12%. Within the alternating matrix, the volume fraction of the B4C matrix is 3% to 9%, the volume fraction of the BN matrix is 2% to 6%, and the volume fraction of the second SiC matrix is 3% to 12%. Since the composite material also contains 5% to 15% of pores (including open and closed pores), the total volume fraction of these components is 85% to 95%.
[0026] The design concept of the SiC fiber reinforced multiphase matrix composite material of the present invention is as follows:
[0027] In order to improve SiC fThe oxidation resistance of SiC / SiC over a wide temperature range of 900-1500°C was investigated experimentally using several feasible self-healing components. The results revealed that the glass phases generated by oxidation of different self-healing components have different melting points, resulting in distinct effective temperature ranges for these glass phases. Specifically, the effective temperature range for B2O3 glass is 450-1000°C, while that for borosilicate glass is 1000-1400°C. The melting points of borosilicate glass vary significantly depending on the ratio of B2O3 to SiO2. Borosilicate glass with a higher B2O3 content is suitable for temperatures between 1000-1200°C, while that with a higher SiO2 content is effective at temperatures between 1200-1400°C. Above 1400°C, the volatilization rate of SiO2 accelerates, necessitating the addition of Al2O3 to enhance its stability. Different self-healing components have different starting oxidation temperatures. Combined with the effective temperature ranges of different glass phases, we can obtain the effective self-healing temperature ranges of different self-healing components: the effective self-healing temperature range of B4C is 600-900℃; the effective self-healing temperature range of BN is 800-1000℃; the effective self-healing temperature range of SiBC is 1000-1200℃; the effective self-healing temperature range of SiAlBCN is 1300-1500℃. Based on the above analysis, in SiC f A variety of self-healing components are introduced into SiC / SiC, and a reasonable order / structure design of different self-healing components is carried out to finally obtain a self-healing SiC fiber reinforced multiphase matrix (i.e. SiC) with a wide temperature range of 900-1500℃. f / SiC-B4C-BN-SiAlBCN) composite material.
[0028] SiC of the present invention f The SiC-B4C-BN-SiAlBCN composite matrix features SiAlBCN on the outside and B4C and BN on the inside. This order and structure allows the high-melting-point SiO2-Al2O3 and aluminosilicate glass, generated by oxidation of the SiAlBCN on the outside, to fully inhibit the volatilization of the low-melting-point B2O3 glass, generated by oxidation of B4C and BN on the inside, enhancing the self-healing effect. The SiC-B4C-BN-SiAlBCN multilayer matrix promotes crack deflection at the interface between the high-modulus matrix phases (SiC, B4C) and the low-modulus matrix phases (BN, SiAlBCN), effectively extending the crack propagation path. This not only improves the toughness of the composite but also extends the oxygen diffusion path, enhancing the composite's oxidation resistance.
