Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of ceramic matrix composite material processing, and specifically relates to an adhesive bonding method for connecting ceramic matrix composite materials. Background Art
[0002] Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are a class of composite materials composed of a ceramic matrix and various fibers. The ceramic matrix can be a high-temperature structural ceramic such as silicon nitride or silicon carbide, which has high temperature resistance, high strength and stiffness, relatively light weight, and corrosion resistance. Currently, aerospace vehicles generally serve in high-temperature vibration environments, and some ceramic matrix composite components are prone to loosening, leading to dangerous accidents.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to study an adhesive bonding method for connecting ceramic matrix composite materials to improve the shear strength and adhesive strength between components. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an adhesive bonding method for connecting ceramic matrix composite materials, which improves the shear strength and adhesive strength between components and solves the problem of loosening of components in the prior art.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following solutions:
[0006] An adhesive bonding method for connecting ceramic matrix composite materials includes the following steps:
[0007] Step 1: Obtain a main component and a connecting component with a weight ratio of 80 - 85:5 - 8, and mix the main component and the connecting component evenly to obtain an adhesive;
[0008] The main component is composed of phenolic resin, acetone, absolute ethanol, and phthalic anhydride;
[0009] The connecting component is a Ni-based binder;
[0010] Step 2: Clean the surface to be bonded of the ceramic matrix composite material, apply the adhesive to the surface to be bonded, and then perform bonding;
[0011] Step 3: After bonding, perform two hot pressing and curing treatments.
[0012] In this application, the ceramic matrix composite material to be bonded is prepared by the CVI or PIP method to obtain two planar components of the ceramic matrix composite material. The main component mainly composed of phenolic resin and the Ni-based binder are mixed in a certain proportion to form a resin adhesive. The phenolic resin can provide adhesive performance under high-temperature conditions, and the Ni-based binder is used to enhance the adhesion strength between ceramic matrix composite materials. At the same time, two hot pressing and curing treatment processes are adopted to finally enhance the tensile strength and shear strength after bonding.
[0013] Further, in the main component, the mass percentages of phenolic resin, acetone, absolute ethanol, and phthalic anhydride are 60% - 80%, 1% - 5%, 10% - 30%, and 5% - 9% respectively.
[0014] Further, the weight ratio of the main component to the connecting component is 80:5.
[0015] Further, the Ni-based binder contains one or more elements of chromium, titanium, cobalt, tungsten, and molybdenum.
[0016] Further, when preparing the adhesive, first stir acetone, absolute ethanol, and phthalic acid evenly, then add phenolic resin and mix for 2 - 8 min at 500 r / min; add the Ni-based binder and mix for 1 - 5 min at 600 r / min.
[0017] Further, after grinding and cleaning the bonding surface of the ceramic matrix composite material, wipe the bonding surface with absolute ethanol.
[0018] Further, the thickness of the adhesive applied on the bonding surface is 0.05 mm - 0.1 mm.
[0019] Further, place the bonded ceramic matrix composite material in a autoclave for two hot pressing and curing processes, with a total heat preservation time of 3 - 5 h.
[0020] Further, for the first hot pressing and curing, heat up to 600 °C at a rate of 10 °C / min and keep the temperature for 1 - 2 h.
[0021] Further, for the second hot pressing and curing, heat up to 800 °C at a rate of 5 °C / min and keep the temperature for 2 - 3 h.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The bonding method of the ceramic matrix composite material of the present invention uses the main component and the connecting component to prepare the adhesive, bond the ceramic matrix composite material, and at the same time, through two hot pressing and curing processes, it can withstand temperatures up to 800 °C - 1000 °C, and makes the connection strength of the ceramic matrix composite material component higher, reduces the construction difficulty, and saves costs.
