Obtaining and Study Smart Composites in the B4C-SiC-Si-Al-Al2O3—Carbon Fiber System

Goal: To obtain SIALON containing composites by reactive sintering method in SiC-B4C-Si-Al-Al2O3 system. Using this method of synthesis, it became possible to obtain composites with different percentages of SIALON. Our task was also to study the phase composition in the SiC-B4C-Si-Al-Al2O3 system. Method: The obtained mass was grounded in an attritor and the consolidated composite was obtained by hot pressing at 1800°C, 40 minutes, delaying at final temperature for 8 min. under 30 MPa pressure. To study the phase composition of the composites, we conducted an X-ray structural analysis on the DRON-3 device, and to study the microstructure, we conducted research on an optical microscope and a raster electron microscope “Nanolab 7” of the company “OPTON”. The values of the electrical parameters of the study composites were calculated on the basis of the obtained “lgp-t” dependence. Result: In SiC-B4C-Si-Al-Al2O3 system we obtained composites with a matrix composed of: β-SIALON, silicon carbide, corundum and nanoparticles of boron nitride. Conclusion: The phase composition of the obtained composite provides high physical-technical and performance properties of these composites. Compression strength—2187 MPA, Bending strength—285 MPa, Thermal expansion coefficient a20-700-3.8 × 10-60 C.
