Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of the preparation of matrix-modified and coating-integrated carbon-based composites, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a matrix-modified and coating-integrated carbon-based composite of ultra-high temperature ceramics. Background Art
[0002] Carbon / carbon (C / C) composites have shown important application potential in high-temperature thermal structure components in the aerospace field due to their excellent high-temperature mechanical properties and thermal stability. However, C / C composites are prone to oxidation ablation in a high-temperature aerobic environment, resulting in a sharp degradation of material properties and limiting their further application. To address this problem, the existing technologies mainly adopt two strategies: matrix modification (enhancing the intrinsic ablation resistance of the matrix by introducing antioxidant components) and surface coating (isolating oxygen erosion by coating with a ceramic coating). However, both of these strategies have significant limitations - in matrix modification, it is difficult to completely block oxygen diffusion due to partial exposure of the matrix, and in coating technology, due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the matrix and the coating, interface cracking or even spalling is likely to occur during thermal shock or ablation. To break through the bottleneck of single technologies, researchers have proposed a synergistic protection concept of matrix modification and coating integration to achieve overall thermal protection of the material.
[0003] CN112624801B reports a method for modifying C / C composites with (SiCNW) / (ZrC matrix-coating integration). By pre-preparing a SiC nanowire framework, a ZrC(SiC) coating can be formed on the material surface while preparing a ZrC-modified matrix by precursor infiltration and pyrolysis. This method can integrally form a ZrC(SiC) ceramic coating and a doped matrix, which can not only effectively block the erosion of the oxygen atmosphere and high-speed particles on the matrix, but also reduce the oxidation activity of the matrix, and at the same time alleviate the problem of mismatch in thermal expansion coefficients between the matrix and the coating, improving the ablation resistance of C / C composites from the inside out. However, this method requires multiple high-temperature heat treatments, resulting in a long preparation cycle and difficult to precisely control the coating thickness.
[0004] In Reference 1 "Liu C X, Su Z A, Huang Q Z, Chen J X, Yang X, Cao L X, Yin T, Zhong P, Ablation behavior of ZrC-SiC coated C / C-ZrC-SiC composites prepared by precursor infiltration pyrolysis combined with reactive melt infiltration, Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 597 (2014) 236-242", C / C-ZrC-SiC composites with ZrC-SiC coatings were prepared by precursor infiltration pyrolysis combined with reactive melt infiltration, showing relatively excellent ablation resistance. However, the precursor infiltration pyrolysis process was repeated 9 times in this method, and reactive melt infiltration was also combined, resulting in a complex preparation process and a long preparation cycle.
[0005] In Reference 2 "Xie J, Jia Y J, Zhao Z G, Li K Z, Sun G D, Li H, Su X H, A ZrC-SiC / SiC multilayer anti-ablation coating for ZrC modified C / C composites, Vacuum, 157 (2018) 324-331", C / C-ZrC composites with ZrC-SiC outer coatings and SiC inner coatings were prepared by precursor infiltration pyrolysis combined with supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying. Although strong interfacial bonding was achieved, the preparation cost of this method was high and the preparation process was cumbersome. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art and provide a preparation method for a carbon-based composite material integrating ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating, so as to solve the problems of cumbersome preparation processes and long process cycles for composite materials for matrix modification and coating preparation in the prior art.
[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A preparation method for a carbon-based composite material integrating ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating, comprising the following steps: S1, laying coating powder in an SPS mold, laying infiltration powder on the coating powder, placing a low-density C / C composite material on the infiltration powder, laying infiltration powder on the upper surface of the C / C composite material, and laying coating powder on the upper surface of the infiltration powder; The infiltration powder is a mixed powder of silicide alloy powder, molten salt and catalyst; the coating powder is a mixed powder of silicide alloy powder, carbon powder, Al2O3 and catalyst powder; S2, subject the mold to pressure increase and heat treatment by SPS, and an integrated carbon-based composite material is obtained after cooling.
[0008] A further improvement of the present invention lies in: Preferably, in S1, the density of the low-density C / C composite material is 1.1~1.4 g / cm 3 ..
[0009] Preferably, in S1, the silicide alloy powder is one or more of HfSi2, ZrSi2, TiSi2, TaSi2, NbSi2 powders.
[0010] Preferably, in S1, the molten salt is one or more of CaCl2, NaCl, KCl powders.
[0011] Preferably, in S1, the catalyst is iron element or its compound, nickel element or its compound.
[0012] Preferably, in S1, during the preparation process of the infiltration powder, after mixing the silicide alloy powder and the molten salt by a ball mill, a catalyst is added to the mixed powder, and the infiltration powder is obtained after grinding.
[0013] Preferably, in S1, the preparation process of the coating powder is to mix the silicide alloy powder, carbon powder and Al2O3 by a ball mill, add a catalyst to the mixed powder, and the coating powder is obtained after grinding.
[0014] Preferably, in S1, in the infiltration powder, the mixing mass ratio of the silicide alloy powder and the molten salt is 6:1~10:1.
[0015] Preferably, in S1, in the coating powder, the mixing molar ratio of the silicide alloy powder, carbon powder and Al2O3 powder is 30:10:1~40:20:1.
[0016] Preferably, in S2, during the pressure increase and heat treatment process, the pressure is 6~10 kN; the heat treatment temperature is 1500~2100 °C, and the heat preservation time is 30~120 min.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: The present invention discloses a rapid preparation method for an integrated carbon-based composite material with ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating; in the present invention, two functional materials are laid layer by layer on the surface of low-density carbon / carbon (C / C), wherein the infiltrated powder in the inner layer is used for matrix modification, and the coating powder in the outer layer is used for in-situ coating generation. Finally, under a vacuum environment, pressure is applied through the SPS process, enabling the silicide alloy melt to infiltrate into the C / C matrix with the assistance of molten salt to generate carbides, and simultaneously the outer layer powder is in-situ transformed into a dense ceramic coating; based on the SPS technology, matrix modification and in-situ coating generation are synchronously achieved through a one-step method. Since the main materials of the coating in the method of the present invention (carbon powder + silicon alloy powder) and the matrix and modification materials are of the same type, all including carbon and silicon alloy, during the same heating temperature, the infiltration process of the composite material and the reaction of the coating material itself can proceed simultaneously. As the infiltrated powder in the inner layer infiltrates, the materials in the coating powder can react with each other. By the later stage of the coating reaction, the coating itself can partially react with the C / C matrix material to form a good bonding force. This method controls the coating thickness by regulating the powder quality, and realizes a strong interfacial bond between the coating and the modified matrix through molten infiltration and interfacial mechanical interlocking (after continuous ablation with an oxyacetylene flame of 4.2 MW / M 2 for 500 s, there is no obvious peeling of the coating). Compared with the traditional step-by-step process, this method gives full play to the advantages of the SPS equipment, shortens the preparation cycle to 1 - 2 hours, synchronously realizes matrix modification and in-situ coating generation through a one-step method, has simple operation steps, omits multiple rounds of complex processes, significantly improves the process efficiency, and reduces the preparation cost; this method realizes a strong interfacial bond between the coating and the modified matrix through molten infiltration and interfacial mechanical interlocking, is applicable to the efficient integrated preparation of ceramic-modified C / C and ceramic coatings, and has significant engineering application value. The method of the present invention has the following advantages: 1. This method only needs one step to complete the preparation of the integrated carbon-based composite material with ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating. Matrix modification is carried out through the infiltration of the powder close to the matrix side, in-situ coating preparation is carried out through the powder far from the matrix side, and strong interfacial toughness bonding is achieved through pressure and the infiltration process.
[0018] 2. Molten salt is set in the infiltrated powder in the inner layer, which can accelerate the infiltration of the silicon alloy modification powder and prevent the silicon alloy from sintering before infiltrating into the composite material. On the other hand, adding Al2O3 powder to the coating powder in the outer layer can be used as the raw material for the outer coating reaction and can also be used as a sintering aid to promote the sintering of the surface coating.
[0019] 3. Since the SPS mold has a small size, it ensures the stacking fixity of the powder and is not easy to move. Therefore, the coating thickness is controlled by regulating the powder quality, and the controllability of the coating composition and thickness is relatively strong.
[0020] 4. The high-throughput process characteristics of this method support the rapid screening and optimization of coating components and modification elements, accelerating the material R & D cycle. Description of the Drawings

[0026] As the problems raised in the background art, the traditional manufacturing process of integrating matrix modification and coating usually proceeds in two steps: ceramic matrix modification and the formation of ceramic coatings. Therefore, the cumbersome preparation process and the interfacial bonding between the coating and the matrix are the most concerned issues. A rapid preparation method of a carbon-based composite material integrating ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating proposed by the present invention is based on SPS technology and synchronously realizes matrix modification and in-situ coating generation through a one-step method. Its core process includes: ball-milling and mixing silicide alloys with molten salt systems and carbon powder-Al2O3 composite systems respectively to form inner matrix modification powder materials and outer coating preparation powder materials. Mix the two powder materials with iron / nickel-based catalysts in proportion, and sequentially lay the inner modification powder material and the outer coating powder material on the surface of low-density C / C. On the one hand, it promotes the sintering of the coating, and on the other hand, it catalyzes the in-situ generation of nano-toughening phases to optimize the material properties. Construct a functional layered structure. Place the installed mold in an SPS furnace and perform high-temperature heat treatment by setting appropriate temperature and pressure programs. With the assistance of the flow action of the molten salt at high temperature for infiltration, the silicide alloy melt reacts with the pyrolytic carbon in the C / C matrix at a low-viscosity environment to form carbides for matrix modification. At the same time, the outer silicide alloy reacts in-situ with carbon powder or Al2O3 to form a dense carbide / oxide / silicide ceramic coating. Finally, clean the residual graphite paper on the surface to obtain a matrix-coating integrated composite material with a tightly bonded interface, and the coating thickness is precisely controlled by the powder addition amount.
[0027] The present invention discloses a preparation method of a carbon-based composite material integrating ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating, comprising the following steps: Step 1, ultrasonically clean the low-density C / C composite material with deionized water and dry it in a far-infrared drying oven for 15-20 h; Step 2, put the silicide alloy powder and molten salt in a ball mill according to a certain ratio for ball-milling and mixing to obtain powder A; Step 3, put the silicide alloy powder, carbon powder, and Al2O3 in a ball mill according to a certain ratio for ball-milling and mixing to obtain powder B; Step 4, mix powder A with the catalyst in a mortar according to a certain ratio and mix evenly to obtain powder C, which is the infiltration powder; mix powder B with the catalyst in a mortar according to a certain ratio and mix evenly to obtain powder D, which is the coating powder; Step 5, evenly laying a certain mass of powder C on the upper and lower parts of the low-density C / C obtained in step 1; Step 6, evenly lay a certain mass of powder D outside the powder laid in step 5 and place it in the SPS mold, so that the raw materials in the mold are from top to bottom: powder D-powder C-low density C / C-powder C-powder D; Step 7, placing the assembled mold in an SPS furnace, setting the pressure and temperature program for high temperature heat treatment, and taking it out after cooling; Step 8, use sandpaper to polish and clean the upper and lower surfaces of the sample and the residual graphite paper around it, so as to obtain a carbon-based composite material with integrated ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix modification and coating.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present invention, the silicide alloy powder in steps 2 and 3 can be one or more of HfSi2, ZrSi2, TiSi2, TaSi2, and NbSi2 powder.
[0030] The molten salt in step 2 includes one or more of CaCl2, NaCl, and KCl powders. The addition of molten salt can reduce the melting point of the infiltrated powder as a whole, enhance the fluidity of the infiltrated powder, and prevent the silicide alloy powder from sintering and agglomerating before infiltration into the interior.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the catalyst in step 4 includes iron or its compound, nickel or its compound, such as ferrous sulfate or nickel nitrate hexahydrate; the catalyst is suitable for both infiltration powder and coating powder.

By controlling the molar ratio of the silicide alloy powder, carbon powder and Al2O3, the proportion of the product, such as the content of silicide, oxide and carbide, can be controlled.
[0034] In some embodiments of the present invention, the mass ratio of the process powder to the catalyst in step 4 is 200:1 to 500:1.
[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, the pressure program described in step 7 is to apply a pressure of 6-10 kN throughout the process, and the penetration speed can be controlled by controlling the process pressure.
[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, the heating and cooling process in step 7 is carried out in a vacuum environment. The heating rate below 1500°C is 400 - 500°C / min, and the heating rate above 1500°C is 100 - 200°C / min. It is heated to 1500 - 2100°C, and the holding time is 30 - 120 min. In the present invention, through the setting of this heating temperature, the reaction generation of the coating and the infiltration of the infiltration material can be carried out simultaneously. At the same time, the trapezoidal temperature heating method is adopted to give the infiltration powder enough flowing and infiltration time.
[0037] Exemplarily, the heating temperature in the early stage of the above-mentioned heating can be 400°C / min, 450°C / min, and 500°C / min, the heating temperature in the later stage can be 100°C / min, 150°C / min, and 200°C / min, and the heating temperature can be 1500°C, 1600°C, 1700°C, 1800°C, 1900°C, 2000°C, and 2100°C. The holding time can be 30 min, 50 min, 80 min, 100 min, and 120 min.
