The results of two-step oxidation experiments on chemically-vapor-deposited Si3 N4 and SiC at 1350°C show that a correlation exists between the presence of a Si2 N2 O interphase and the strong oxidation resistance of Si3 N4 . During normal oxidation, k p for SiC was 15 times higher than that for Si3 N4 , and the oxide scale on Si3 N4 was found by SEM and TEM to contain a prominent Si2 N2 O inner layer. However, when oxidized samples are annealed in Ar for 1.5 h at 1500°C and reoxidized at 1350°C as before, three things happen: the oxidation k p increases over 55-fold for Si3 N4 , and 3.5-fold for SiC; the Si3 N4 and SiC oxidize with nearly equal k p 's; and, most significant, the oxide scale on Si3 N4 is found to be lacking an inner Si2 N2 O layer. The implications of this correlation for the competing models of Si3 N4 oxidation are discussed. 相似文献

The effect of Si3 N4 , Ta5 Si3 , and TaSi2 additions on the oxidation behavior of ZrB2 was characterized at 1200°–1500°C and compared with both ZrB2 and ZrB2 /SiC. Significantly improved oxidation resistance of all Si-containing compositions relative to ZrB2 was a result of the formation of a protective layer of borosilicate glass during exposure to the oxidizing environment. Oxidation resistance of the Si3 N4 -modified ceramics increased with increasing Si3 N4 content and was further improved by the addition of Cr and Ta diborides. Chromium and tantalum oxides induced phase separation in the borosilicate glass, which lead to an increase in liquidus temperature and viscosity and to a decrease in oxygen diffusivity and of boria evaporation from the glass. All tantalum silicide-containing compositions demonstrated phase separation in the borosilicate glass and higher oxidation resistance than pure ZrB2 , with the effect increasing with temperature. The most oxidation-resistant ceramics contained 15 vol% Ta5 Si3 , 30 vol% TaSi2 , 35 vol% Si3 N4 , or 20 vol% Si3 N4 with 10 mol% CrB2 . These materials exceeded the oxidation resistance of the ZrB2 /SiC ceramics below 1300°–1400°C. However, the ZrB2 /SiC ceramics showed slightly superior oxidation resistance at 1500°C. 相似文献

The compressive creep behavior and oxidation resistance of an Si3 N4 /Y2 Si2 O7 material (0.85Si3 N4 +0.10SiO2 +0.05Y2 O3 ) were determined at 1400°C. Creep re sistance was superior to that of other Si3 N4 materials and was significantly in creased by a preoxidation treatment (1600°C /120 h). An apparent parabolic rate constant of 4.2 × 10−11 kg2 ·m-4 ·s−1 indicates excellent oxidation resistance. 相似文献

The oxidation behaviors of monolithic Si3 N4 and nanocomposite Si3 N4 -SiC with Yb2 O3 as a sintering aid were investigated. The specimens were exposed to air at temperatures between 1200° and 1500°C for up to 200 h. Parabolic weight gains with respect to exposure time were observed for both specimens. The oxidation products formed on the surface also were similar, i.e., a mixture of crystalline Yb2 Si2 O7 and SiO2 (cristobalite). However, strength retention after oxidation was much higher for the nanocomposite Si3 N4 -SiC compared to the monolithic Si3 N4 . The SiC particles of the nanocomposite at the grain boundary were effective in suppressing the migration of Yb3+ ions from the bulk grain-boundary region to the surface during the oxidation process. As a result, depletion of yttribium ions, which led to the formation of a damaged zone beneath the oxide layer, was prevented. 相似文献

The high-temperature flexural strength of hot-pressed silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) and Si3 N4 -whisker-reinforced Si3 N4 -matrix composites has been measured at a crosshead speed of 1.27 mm/min and temperatures up to 1400°C in a nitrogen atmosphere. Load–displacement curves for whisker-reinforced composites showed nonelastic fracture behavior at 1400°C. In contrast, such behavior was not observed for monolithic Si3 N4 . Microstructures of both materials have been examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicate that grain-boundary sliding could be responsible for strength degradation in both monolithic Si3 N4 and its whisker composites. The origin of the nonelastic failure behavior of Si3 N4 -whisker composite at 1400°C was not positively identified but several possibilities are discussed. 相似文献

The oxidation behavior and effect of oxidation on room-temperature flexural strength were investigated for hot-pressed Si3 N4 ceramics, with 3.33 and 12.51 wt% Lu2 O3 additives, exposed to air at 1400° and 1500°C for up to 200 h. Parabolic oxidation behavior was observed for both compositions. The oxidation products consisted of Lu2 Si2 O7 and SiO2 . The Lu2 Si2 O7 grew out of the surface silicate in preferred orientations. The morphology of oxidized surfaces was dependent on the amount of additive; Lu2 Si2 O7 grains in the 3.33 wt% composition appeared partially in a needlelike type, compared with a more equiaxed type exhibited in the 12.51 wt% case. The high resistance to oxidation shown for both compositions was attributed to the extensive amounts of crystalline, refractory secondary phases formed during the sintering process. Moreover, after 200 h of oxidation at 1400° and 1500°C, the strength retention displayed by the two compositions was 93%–95% and 85%–87%, respectively. The strength decrease was associated with the formation of new defects at the interface between the oxide layer and the Si3 N4 bulk. 相似文献

The effect of aluminum and yttrium nitrate additives on the densification of monolithic Si3 N4 and a Si3 N4 /SiC composite by pressureless sintering was compared with that of oxide additives. The surfaces of Si3 N4 particles milled with aluminum and yttrium nitrates, which were added as methanol solutions, were coated with a different layer containing Al and Y from that of Si3 N4 particles milled with oxide additives. Monolithic Si3 N4 could be sintered to 94% of theoretical density (TD) at 1500°C with nitrate additives. The sintering temperature was about 100°C lower than the case with oxide additives. After pressureless sintering at 1750°C for 2 h in N2 , the bulk density of a Si3 N4 /20 wt% SiC composite reached 95% TD with nitrate additives. 相似文献

Phase relation studies of Si3 N1 , SiO2 , and MgO have established three important subsolidus tie lines, viz. Si3 N4 -MgO, Si3 N4 -Mg2 SiO4 , and Si2 N2 O-Mg2 SiO4 for nonoxidizing fabrication conditions. Strength measurements at 1400°C show that optimum strengths are obtained for compositions approaching the Si3 N4 -MgO and Si3 N4 -Si2 N2 O tie lines and that inferior strengths are obtained for compositions approaching the Si3 N4 -Mg2 SiO4 tie line. Oxidation measurements at 1375°C show that the oxidation kinetics depend on the content of MgO and Mg2 SiO4 phases. Optimum oxidation resistance is observed for compositions approaching the Si3 N4 -Si2 N2 O tie line. Strength and oxidation results are discussed with regard to phase equilibrium considerations. 相似文献

A thermo gravimetric study of the oxidation behavior of chemically vapor-deposited amorphous and crystalline Si3 N4 (CVD Si3 N4 ) was made in dry oxygen (0.1 MPa) at 1550° to 1650°C. The specimens were prepared under various deposition conditions using a mixture of SiCl4 , NH3 , and H2 gases. The crystalline CVD Si3 N4 indicated a parabolic oxidation kinetics over the whole temperature range, whereas the amorphous CVD Si3 N4 changed from a parabolic to a linear law with increased temperature. The oxidation mechanism is discussed in terms of the activation energy for the oxidation and the microstructure of the formed oxide films. 相似文献

The effects of oxidation at 1400°C for 100 h on both surface and internal composition of commercial and laboratory hot-pressed Si3 N4 with MgO or ZrO2 additives as well as chemically vapor deposited (CVD) Si3 N4 were studied using X-ray diffraction. Samples were also compared to the same temperature treatments in Ar. The results indicate the grain boundaries act as rapid diffusion paths for the transport of oxygen. 相似文献

The high-temperature chemical stability of hot-pressed Si3 N4 was studied between 600° and 1450°C. Reactions were followed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. In air, this material begins to oxidize at 700° to 750°C; a distinct amorphous siO2 surface layer results after 24 h at 750°C-Concomitant formation of cristobalite occurs, depending on exposure time, and is enhanced as temperature is Increased. Magnesium and calcium magnesium silicates form above 1000°C. The data suggest that impurities, e.g. Mg, Ca, and Fe, greatly lower the oxidation resistance of Si3 N4 in air. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of a chemically-vapor-deposited mullite coating (∼100 nm) on the oxidation resistance of sintered Si3 N4 in air and steam environments. The coating was sacrificially incorporated into the thermally grown oxide (TGO) on Si3 N4 during isothermal oxidation in air at 1400°C, leading to significantly reduced TGO growth as well as markedly improved TGO morphology. This improvement can be attributed to the refractory and viscous nature of the SiO2 -Al2 O3 system, compared with SiO2 , when under the influence of alkali and/or alkaline-earth fluxing elements. However, the mullite coating had little effect on the stability of the ceramic in the steam environment at 1200°C, due likely to high activity of SiO2 in mullite. 相似文献

Si3 N4 /MoSi2 and Si3 N4 /WSi2 composites were prepared by reaction-bonding processes using as starting materials powder mixtures of Si-Mo and Si-W, respectively. A presintering step in an At-base atmosphere was used before nitriding for the formation of MoSi2 and WSi2 ; the nitridation in a N2 -base atmosphere was followed after presintering with the total stepwise cycle of 1350°C × 20 h +1400°C × 20 h +1450°C × 2 h. The final phases obtained in the two different composites were Si3 N4 and MoSi2 or WSi2 ; no free elemental Si and Mo or W were detected by X-ray diffraction. 相似文献

High-density Si3 N4 +6% CeO2 composites with 5 to 50% BN were fabricated by hot-pressing. BN remained as a discrete phase. Dielectric constants were 4 to 8 and loss tangents were 0.0008 to 0.06 for the room temperature to 1100°C range for compositions with 10 to 50% BN. Thermal-expansion values perpendicular to the hot-pressing direction were somewhat less than those of hot-pressed Si3 N4 +6% CeO2 . Flexure strengths at room temperature were considerably lower than those of hot-pressed Si3 N4 +6% CeO2 but values at 1000°, 1250°, and 1400°C in air were only slightly lower. Young's modulus values were found to decrease with increasing BN content at all temperatures. Better thermal shock resistance was found than for commercial hot-pressed Si3 N4 . 相似文献

Composite ceramic materials based on Si3 N4 and ZrO2 stabilized by 3 mol% Y2 O3 have been formed using aluminum isopropoxide as a precursor for the Al2 O3 sintering aid. Densification was carred out by hot-pressing at temperatures in the range 1650° to 1800°C, and the resulting micro-structures were related to mechanical properties as well as to oxidation behavior at 1200°C. Densification at the higher temperatures resulted in a fibrous morphology of the Si3 N4 matrix with consequent high room-temperature toughness and strength. Decomposition of the ZrO2 grains below the oxidized surface during oxidation introduced radial stresses in the subscalar region, and from the oxidation experiments it is suggested that the ZrO2 incorporated some N during densification. 相似文献

The effect of oxidation exposure on room-temperature flexural strength was examined in 3.33- and 12.51-wt%-Lu2 O3 -containing hot-pressed Si3 N4 ceramics exposed to air at 1500°C for up to 1000 h. After oxidation exposure, the room-temperature strength of the ceramics was degraded, and strength retention decreased with time at temperature, dependent on the amount of additive. The retention in room-temperature strength displayed by the two compositions after 1000 h of oxidation exposure was 75%–80%. The degradation in strength was attributed to the formation of new defects at and/or near the interface between the oxide layer and the Si3 N4 bulk during oxidation exposure. 相似文献

The oxidation behavior and its effect on the mechanical properties of fibrous monolith Si3 N4 /BN after exposure to air at temperatures ranging from 1000° to 1400°C for up to 20 h were investigated. After exposure at 1000°C, only the BN cell boundary was oxidized, forming a B2 O3 liquid phase. With increasing exposure temperature, the Si3 N4 cells began to oxidize, forming crystalline Y2 Si2 O7 , SiO2 , and silicate glass. However, in this case, a weight loss was observed due to extensive vaporization of the B2 O3 liquid. After exposure at 1400°C, large Y2 Si2 O7 crystals with a glassy phase formed near the BN cell boundaries. The oxidation behavior significantly affected the mechanical properties of the fibrous monolith. The flexural strength and work-of-fracture decreased with increasing exposure temperature, while the noncatastrophic failure was maintained. 相似文献

Subsolidus phase relations were established in the system Si3 N4 -SiO2 -Y2 O3 . Four ternary compounds were confirmed, with compositions of Y4 Si2 O7 N2 , Y2 Si3 O3 N4 , YSiO2 N, and Y10 (SiO4 )6 N2 . The eutectic in the triangle Si3 N4 -Y2 Si2 O7 -Y10 (SiO4 )6 N2 melts at 1500°C and that in the triangle Si2 N2 O-SiO2 -Y2 Si2 O7 at 1550°C. The eutectic temperature of the Si3 N4 -Y2 Si2 O7 join was ∼ 1520°C. 相似文献

A simple processing technique has been developed for joining Si3 N4 -based ceramics. Thin (<5 μm thick), amorphous, or partially crystalline SiO2 -based surface layers were formed, via low-temperature oxidation (at 1200°C), on the faces to be joined. Joining of the surface-coated pieces could then be performed in an inert environment at typical sintering/joining temperatures (i.e., 1700°C), with or without applied gas pressure, via a transient viscous/liquid phase. This method was most effective for Si3 N4 ceramics with single oxide sintering additives when a thin (∼1 μm thick), highly smooth (RMS roughness <60 nm) SiO2 layer was formed, and essentially 'pore-free' joints could be formed. However, the method was less suitable for a multi-additive SiAlON material under current experimental conditions, as relatively high roughness (RMS roughness >400 nm) oxide scales formed, leaving residual porosity at the joint interface. 相似文献

The 1780°C isothermal section of the reciprocal quasiternary system Si3 N4 -SiO2 -BeO-Be3 N2 was investigated by the X-ray analysis of hot-pressed samples. The equilibrium relations shown involve previously known compounds and 8 newly found compounds: Be6 Si3 N8 , Be11 Si5 N14 , Be5 Si2 N6 , Be9 Si3 N10 , Be8 SiO4 N4 , Be6 O3 N2 , Be8 O5 N2 , and Be9 O6 N2 . Large solid solubility occurs in β-Si3 N4 , BeSiN2 , Be9 Si3 N10 , Be4 SiN4 , and β-Be3 N2 . Solid solubility in β-Si3 N4 extends toward Be2 SiO4 and decreases with increasing temperature from 19 mol% at 1770°C to 11.5 mol% Be2 SiO4 at 1880°C. A 4-phase isotherm, liquid +β-Si3 N4 ( ss )Si2 ON2 + BeO, exists at 1770°C. 相似文献
