Effect of SiC particle size of the densification of Al2O3-SiC composite during pressureless sintering was investigated. Two types of SiC powders having average particle size of 0.15${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and 3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were used. Densification rate of the specimen containing 0.15${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SiC particles was slower than that of the specimen containg 3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SiC particles. Although the relative density of the specimen containing 0.15${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SiC particles was below 90% of theoretical density after sintering at 155$0^{\circ}C$ the complete closure of open pores occurred. Therefore full densification could be obtained by subsequent HIP. On the other hand in the specimen containing 3${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SiC particles the complete closed pore was observed at 95% of theoretical density. Such a fast pore closure in the specimen containing 0.15${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ SiC particles is likely to occur as a result of dense reaction layer formation on the specimen surface which is attributed to the high reactivity of small size particles with sintering atmosphere.

C/SiC composites were prepared by boron nitride (BN)-assisted liquid silicon infiltration (LSI), and their anti-oxidation and mechanical properties were investigated. The microstructures, bulk densities, and porosities of the C/SiC composites demonstrated that the infiltration of liquid silicon into the composites improved them, because the layered-structure BN worked as a lubricant. Increasing the amount of BN improved the anti-oxidation of the prepared C/SiC composites. This synergistic effect was induced by the assistance of BN in the LSI. More thermally stable SiC was formed in the composite, and fewer pores were formed in the composite, which reduced inward oxygen diffusion. The mechanical strength of the composite increased up to the addition of 3% BN and decreased thereafter due to increased brittleness from the presence of more SiC in the composite. Based on the anti-oxidation and mechanical properties of the prepared composites, we concluded that improved anti-oxidation of C/SiC composites can be achieved through BN-assisted LSI, although there may be some degradation of the mechanical properties. The desired anti-oxidation and mechanical properties of the composite can be achieved by optimizing the BN-assisted LSI conditions.

석출경화형 6061Al기지합금과 SiC입자크기를 0.7$\mu\textrm{m}$ 및 7.0$\mu\textrm{m}$로 변화시켜 강화한 SiCp/6061Al 합금복합재료의 시효 거동을 경도측정, DSC 시험 및 TEM관찰을 통하여 조사하였다. 17$0^{\circ}C$에서 등온시효시 6061Al기지합금에 비하여 복합화한 0.7$\mu\textrm{m}$SiCp/6061Al합금복합재료 및 7.0$\mu\textrm{m}$SiCP/6061Al합금복합재료에서 최고경도에 도달하는 시간이 짧았으며, 또한 강화재의 크기가 큰 7.0$\mu\textrm{m}$SiCp/6061Al합금복합재료에서 시효촉진이 보다 크게 나타났다. 이것은 복합화 및 SiC입자크기 증가에 따른 전위 밀도 상승에 기인한다. 6061Al기지합금 및 복합재료에서 최고시효처리시의 주강화상은 봉상의 중간상 $\beta$(Mg$_2$Si)이며,$\beta$상 생성의 활성화에너지는 복합화 및 SiG입자크기의 증가에 따라 감소되었다

The influences of ZrB$_2$additives to the SiC and pulse width on electrical discharge machining of SiC-ZrB$_2$electroconductive ceramic composites were investigated. IIigher-flexural strength materials show a trend toward smaller crater volumes, leaving a soother surface; the average surface roughness of the SiC-ZrB$_2$15 Vol.% Composite with the flexural strength of 375㎫ was 3.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$,whereas the SiC-ZrB$_2$30 Vol.% composite of 457㎫ was 1.35${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. In the SEM micrographs of the fracture surface of SiC-ZrB$_2$composites, the SiC-ZrB$_2$two phaes are distinct; the white phase is the ZrB$_2$. In the micrograph of the EDM surface, however, these phases are no longer distinct because of thicker recast layer of resolidified-melt-formation droplets present.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic(CFRP) composite with a higher specific strength and rigidity is more excellent than conventional metallic materials or other organic polymer of FRP. It has been widely used in vehicles, aerospaces and high technology industries which are associated with nuclear power fields. However, CFRP laminated composite has several disadvantages as like a delamination, matrix brittleness and anisotropic fibers that are the weak points of the crack initiation. In this present work, the reinforced silicon carbide(SiC) particles were added to the interlayer of CFRP laminates in order to mitigate the physical vulnerability affecting the cracking and breaking of the matrix in the CFRP laminated composite because of excellent specific strength and thermal shock resistance characteristics of SiC. The 1wt% of SiC particles were spread into the CFRP prepreg by using a spray coating method. After that, CFRP prepregs were laminated for the specimen. Also, the twill woven type CFRP prepreg was used because it has excellent workability. Thus the mechanical and fracture behaviors of the twill woven CFRP laminated composite reinforced with SiC particles were investigated with the acoustic emission(AE) method under a fracture test. The results show that the SiC particles enhance the mechanical and fracture characteristics of the twill CFRP laminate composite.

서로 다른 크기의 SiC 원료분말을 첨가한 A1$_2$O$_3$-SiC 복합재료의 미세조직과 그에 따른 기계적 물성의 변화를 관찰하였다. 0.15 $mu extrm{m}$의 SiC가 첨가된 복합재료의 경우 기지상의 입성장이 효과적으로 억제되었다 그러나, 소수의 비정상입자가 생성된 이후에는 이들 입자의 급격한 성장으로 불규칙한 형상의 커다란 입자로 구성된 미세조직을 보이며, 파괴강도값은 급격히 감소하였다. 3 $\mu\textrm{m}$의 SiC가 첨가된 경우에는 기지상의 입성장이 일어났으나, 소수의 비정상입자가 생성된 이후에는 과도한 입성장은 억제되고 일정한 크기의 비정상입자가 시편 전체에 균일하게 형성된 미세조직을 보였다. 한편, 0.15 $\mu\textrm{m}$와 3 $\mu\textrm{m}$의 SiC 입자를 동시에 첨가한 시편은 균일한 크기의 비정상입성장의 미세조직을 보였으나, 비정상입성장이 일어났음에도 불구하고 기계적 물성은 우수하게 유지되었다 즉, 비정상입성장에 의해 미세조직에는 큰 변화가 일어났으나, 파괴강도값에는 변화가 없었다.

The attenuation coefficients of SiC particle reinforced low-density polyethylene (LDPE) matrix composites were measured by pulse echo method and dynamic elastic measure method with varying the volume fraction of SiC particle ranged from 0% to 40% and the size of SiC particles ranged from 0.8$\mu$m to 48$\mu$m. The SiCp/LDPE composites were fabricated with the melt injection process and the fabricated composites showed almost full density above 99% up to 40vo1% SiCp reinforcements. The attenuation constant of LDPE measured by dynamic elastic constant had same result with that measured by pulse echo method, but the attenuation constant of SiCp/LDPE measured by dynamic elastic constant did not have same result with that measured by pulse echo method.

SiCw/Al composite material is especially attractive because of their superior specific strength, specific stiffness, corrosion fatigue resistance, creep resistance, and wear resistance compared with the corresponding wrought Al alloy. In this study, Fatigue crack growth behavior and fatigue crack path morphology(FCPM) of SiC whisker reinforced Al 6061 alloy with 25% SiC volume fraction and Al 6061 allay were performed. Result of the fatigue crack growth test sgiwed that fatigue crack growth rate of SiCw/Al 6061 composite was slower than that of Al 6061 matrix therefore it was confirmed that Sic whisker have a excellent fatigue resistance. And Al 6061 matrix had only FCPM perpendicular to loading direction. On the other hand SiCw/Al 6061 composite had three types in fatigue crack path morphology. First type is that both sides FCPM of artificial notch are perpendicular to loading direction. Second type is that a FCPM in artifical notch has slant angle to loading direction and the other side FCPM is perpendicular to loading direction. Third type is that both sides FCPM of notch have slant angle to loading direction. It was considered that this kinds of phenomena were due to non-uniform distribution of SiC whisker and confirmed by SEM observation for fracture mechanism study.

$Al_2O_3$-SiC composites reinforced with SiC whisker ($SiC_w$) were fabricated using three different methods. In the first, $Al_2O_3-SiC_w$ starting materials were used. In the second, $Al_2O_3-SiC_w$-SiC particles ($SiC_p$) were used, which was intended to enhance the mechanical properties by $SiC_p$ reinforcement. In the third method, reaction-sintering was used with mullite-Al-C-$SiC_w$ starting materials. After hot-pressing at $1750^{\circ}C$ and 30 MPa for 1 h, the composites fabricated using $Al_2O_3-SiC_w$ and $Al_2O_3-SiC_w-SiC_p$ showed strong mechanical properties, by which the effects of reinforcement by $SiC_w$ and $SiC_p$ were confirmed. On the other hand, the mechanical properties of the composite fabricated by reaction-sintering were found to be inferior to those of the other $Al_2O_3$-SiC composites owing to its relatively lower density and the presence of ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ and ${\gamma}-Al_{2.67}O_4$. The greatest hardness and $K_{1C}$ were 20.37 GPa for the composite fabricated using $Al_2O_3-SiC_w$, and $4.9MPa{\cdot}m^{1/2}$ using $Al_2O_3-SiC_w-SiC_p$, respectively, which were much improved over those from the monolithic $Al_2O_3$.
