Mullite flexural strength

In addition to the initial work in the alumina and mullite matrix systems previously mentioned, SiC whiskers have also been used to reinforce other ceramic matrices such as silicon nitride,9-13 glass,14 15 magnesia-alumina spinel,16 cordierite,17 zirconia,18 alumina/zirconia,18 19 mullite/zirconia,18-21 and boron carbide.22 A summary of the effect of SiC whisker additions on the mechanical properties of various ceramics is given in Table 2.1. As shown, the addition of whiskers increases the fracture toughness of the ceramics in all cases as compared to the same monolithic materials. In many instances, improvements in the flexural strengths were also observed. Also important is the fact that these improvements over the monolithic materials are retained at elevated temperatures in many cases. [Pg.59]

The flexural strength of a mullite/20 vol.% SiC whisker composite as a function of temperature is presented in Fig. 2.4. As shown, the significant increase in the strength of the composite is retained up to temperatures of at... [Pg.63]
