Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the technical field of fiber-reinforced SiC ceramic matrix composite material preparation, in particular to a device and method for preparing fiber-reinforced SiC ceramic matrix composite material based on a chemical vapor deposition method improved according to the principle of Joule heat. BACKGROUND

[0002] The fiber-reinforced SiC ceramic matrix composite material is mainly used in the fields of aerospace, energy, nuclear energy, national defense and military industry, semiconductors and automobiles. The preparation process includes chemical vapor infiltration (CVI), polymer impregnation and pyrolysis (PIP) and melt infiltration (MI) processes. The patent "Method for preparing ceramic matrix composite material through improved PIP process" (application number: CN202510088178.4) prepares the ceramic matrix composite material through polymer impregnation, low-temperature pre-pyrolysis and high-temperature pyrolysis and the like. The patent "Rapidly densified ceramic matrix composite slurry, preparation method and application thereof" (application number: CN202510375025.8) prepares the ceramic matrix composite material by immersing a mixed slurry of polycarbosilane, SiC whisker, calcium fluoride and lanthanum oxide into the composite material. The patent "Nearly fully dense carbon fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composite material and preparation method thereof" (application number: CN202510526532.7) embeds C f / PyC / silicon carbide matrix in metal powder for reaction melt infiltration to obtain the carbon fiber-reinforced ceramic matrix composite material.

[0003] The obvious shrinkage of the liquid precursor in the PIP method during drying and pyrolysis can damage the fibers of the preform, and the excessively high temperature in the melt infiltration process of the MI method can also cause great damage to the fibers. The CVI process is to direct the gaseous precursor to the fiber braid through diffusion or under the action of a pressure difference, and diffuse into the fiber braid. The gaseous precursor reacts in the pores of the braid under 900-1100 o C to generate a solid product deposited on the pore wall, and the pore wall gradually thickens with the reaction. The method has the advantages of being capable of obtaining a high-purity and high-crystallinity SiC matrix and being suitable for preparing large-size and complex-shaped parts. In the CVI process, the surface pores of the preform need to be kept open to ensure the diffusion of the precursor. However, the conventional chemical vapor infiltration process has the problems of long single deposition time, uneven material deposition, higher porosity in the center of the material than in the outside of the material, low final forming density of the material and high porosity of the material, which can reach 10-15%.
