Mullite matrix

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]

At the DLR Institute of Materials Research an all-oxide CMC (WHIPOX = wound highly porous oxide) consisting of alumina fibres Nextel 610 or mullite based fibre (Nextel 720, both 3M) and an alumina or mullite matrix, respectively, has been developed in recent years [1,2]. Mullite-based CMCs typically offer higher creep stability than alumina-based composites but display lower thermal conductivity. Lower thermal stability of alumina-based materials, however, can be accepted, since service temperature is significantly lower for these materials as a result of the better cooling efficiency. Therefore material development was focused on alumina... [Pg.118]

Domier of Germany developed oxide fiber-reinforced mullite matrix composite systems in the 1980s. The system was based on SMs Nextel 312 fibers and slurry impregnation of a mullite matrix. This composite demonstrated modest levels of strength (120 MPa [17.4 ksi]) and low failure strain (0.2 to 0.3 percent). Several hot gas exhaust nozzles for Dormer s turboprop airerafl were successfully deployed and continue to be used in regular service. [Pg.31]

DAVID WILSON is a research specialist with 3M and has more than 10 years of research and development experience in the synthesis of new ceramic fibers using sol-gel techniques and is the inventor of the Nextel 610 and Nextel 720 ceramic fibers. His experience includes the development of novel fiber precursor formulations, continuous fiber processing, and characterization of ceramic fibers at room and elevated temperatures. Current research activities include preceramic polymer-derived SiC fibers and MOCVD coating and composite fabrication for the Mullite Matrix Composite Consortium Program. Mr. Wilson holds four patents and is the author of several publications. [Pg.111]

Alternately, an alumina-mullite matrix was developed in an effort to improve long-term thermal stability of porous-matrix CMCs. This matrix utilizes a bimodal mixture of mullite ( 1 jLm) and alumina ( 0.2 p,m) powders [4], The mullite exhibits relatively slow sintering that inhibits shrinkage and maintains the overall porous structure, while the fine alumina sinters more readily, cementing the mullite particles and providing strength to the porous matrix structure [66, 67]. Zirconia has also been studied as the primary phase, with mullite used to stabilize the matrix [68]. [Pg.387]

Various material properties (e. g. thermal diffiisivity, air permeability) have been determined for WHIPOX CMCs. Reliable data are important for potential applications such as thermal insulators, filters or burners. Thermal conductivity perpendicular to fiber orientation is about IW/mK. Closer inspection reveals lower conductivity if a mullite matrix is employed instead of alumina. Thermal conductivity in fiber direction, on the other hand, is about three times higher as perpendicular to the fiber direction, reflecting the non-isotropic structure of the composite (Figure 11). [Pg.431]

The microstructure of zirconia grains is observed by TEM and analyzed by CBED (Fig. 6). The large intergranular grain is transformed and the twin domains and a microcrack formed in the mullite matrix due to the different expansion coefficient after transformation are visible. In this case, the intragranular tetragonal zirconia particles show only a small concentric stress field around them. [Pg.55]
