Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Al2O3/SiC micro/nano composites were prepared by axial pressing of poly(allyl)carbosilane-coated submicrometre alumina powder at elevated temperature (called also warm pressing, or plastic forming) with subsequent pressureless sintering in the temperature interval between 1700 and 1850 °C. Warm pressing at 350 °C and 50 MPa resulted in green bodies with high mechanical strength and with markedly higher density than in green bodies prepared by cold isostatic pressing of the same powder at 1000 MPa. The sintering of warm pressed specimens moreover yielded the composites with higher final density (less than 4% of residual porosity) with the microstructure composed of micrometer-sized alumina grains (D50 < 2 μm) with inter- and intragranular SiC precipitates. High sintering temperatures (>1800 °C) promoted the formation of intergranular platelets identified by TEM as 6H polytype of α-SiC. The maximum hardness (19.4 ± 0.5 GPa) and fracture toughness (4.8 ± 0.1 MPa m1/2) were achieved in the composites containing 8 vol.% of SiC, and sintered for 3 h at 1850 °C. These values are within the limits reported for nanocomposites Al2O3/SiC by other authors and do not represent any significant improvement in comparison to monolithic alumina.
