  • Carbon woven fabric/C/SiC composites were fabricated by multiple impregnations of carbon woven fabric/carbon preform with the polymer precursor of SiC, i.e., polycarbosilane. In addition, two kinds of low density carbon/carbon preforms which had different fiber volume fraction and fiber orientation, i.e., a carbon woven fabric(${\thickapprox}$55 vol%)/carbon and a chopped carbon fiber${\thickapprox}$40 vol%)/carbon composites, were reaction-bonded with a silicon melt at 1$700^{\circ}C$ in a vacuum to fabricate dense carbon fiber/Si/SiC composites. The reaction-bonding process increased the density to ~2.1 g/$cm^3$ from 1.6 g/$cm^3$ and 1.15 g/$cm^3$ of a carbon woven and a chopped carbon preforms, respectively. All of the composites fractured with extensive fiber pull-out. The higher the density the higher the stiffness and proportional limit stress. The mechanical properties obtained from a three-point bend and tension tests were compared. The ratios of the peak tensile stresses to the bending strengths of a carbon woven and a chopped carbon composites were about one-third, respectively. The carbon woven fabric/Si/SiC composites with density of 2.06 g/$cm^3$ showed ~120 MPa of ultimate strength and ~80 MPa of proportional limit in bend testing.

  • The high temperature deformation behavior of SiCp/2124Al composite and 2124Al alloy was investigated by hot compression test in a temperature ranged $400~475^{\circ}C$ over a strain rate ranged $10^{-3}~1s^{-1}$. The billets of 2124Al alloy and SiCp/2124Al composite were fabricated by vacuum hot pressing process. The stress-strain curve during high temperature deformation exhibited a peak stress, and then the flow stress decreased gradually into a steady state stress with increasing the strain. It was found that the flow-softening behavior was attributed to the dynamic recovery, local dynamic recrystallization and dynamic precipitation during the deformation. The precipitation phases were identified as S' and S by TEM diffraction pattern. Base on the TEM inspection, the relationship between the Z-H parameter and subgrain size was found based on the experiment data. The dependence of flow stress on temperature and strain rate could be formulated well by a hyperbolic-sinusoidal relationship using the Zener-Hollomon parameter.

  • The platelet reinforced mullite-zirconia composites were prepared by pressurelss sintering with addition of Al2O3 or SiC platelets. The sintered density of 10 vol% Al2O3 platelet reinforced mullite-zirconia composite was 98.3% at 1700$^{\circ}C$. The fracture strength (290 MPa) and fracture toughness (4.9 MPa$.${{{{ SQRT { m} }}) in the Al2O3 platelet reinforced mullite-zirconia composite were enhanced compared with those of mullite-zirconia due to the crack deflection and load transfer effect of platelets. Whereas, the SiC platelet reinforced mullite-zirconia composite sintered at 1650$^{\circ}C$ showed relatively lower density (95.7%), fracture strength (170 MPa), and fracture toughness (3.9 MPa$.${{{{ SQRT { m} }} than the Al2O3 platelet reinforced mullite-zirconia composite.

  • Nickel-ceramics nanocomposite coatings can be applied as the wear resistance coating, corrosion protection of underlying materials, and decorative coatings. Hence, Nickel based nanocomposite coatings, especially Ni-SiC, have been extensively studied in recent years. However, more often agglomeration problem of the nanoparticles in the nickel matrix can cause deterioration of the mechanical properties rather than improvement. The homogeneous distribution of the nanoparticles in the matrix coating is still being challenging. In this experiment, electrochemical deposition of Ni-SiC composite coating was done in presence of ultrasound. The effects of different ultrasonic powers and frequencies on the nanoparticle dispersion were studied. The electrodeposition was carried out in nickel sulfamate bath by applying pulse current technique. Compared to the conventional mechanical stirring technique to prevent nanoparticles agglomeration and sedimentation during composite electrodeposition, the aid of ultrasonic dispersion along with mechanical stirring has been found to be more effective not only for the nanoparticles dispersion, but also for the mechanical properties of the electrodeposited coatings. Nanoparticles were found to be distributed homogeneously with reduced agglomeration. The microstructure of the composite coating has also been changed, allowing some random orientations of the nickel crystallite grain growths, smooth surface, and finer grains. As a consequence, better mechanical properties of the composites were observed.

  • In this work, the SiC powders were synthesized through the carbonized matter from the mixture of silica powder and rice husks. The SiC powders, obtained from the carbothermal reduction reaction of silica and carbonized rice husks, were investigated by XRD patterns, XPS, FE-SEM and FE-TEM. In the XRD patterns, the specimens showed clearly very high strong peak of (111) plane near $35^{\circ}$ as well as weak (220) and (311) peak respectively at approximately $60^{\circ}$ and $72^{\circ}$. Under Ar atmosphere, the power synthesized from the mixture (in case of mixing ratio, 6 : 4) of carbonized rice husks and silica showed mainly cubic SiC crystalline phase showing relatively lower ratio of hexagonal phase without residual carbon in XRD pattern. In the TEM analysis, the specimen, synthesized from carbonized rice husks and silica with mixing ratio of 6 : 4 under Ar atmosphere, showed relatively fine particles under $5{\mu}m$ and a crystalline SiC phase of (100) diffraction pattern.
