Toughness directed metal oxidation

Directed Oxidation of a Molten Metal. Directed oxidation of a molten metal or the Lanxide process (45,68,91) involves the reaction of a molten metal with a gaseous oxidant, eg, A1 with O2 in air, to form a porous three-dimensional oxide that grows outward from the metal/ceramic surface. The process proceeds via capillary action as the molten metal wicks into open pore channels in the oxide scale growth. Reinforced ceramic matrix composites can be formed by positioning inert filler materials, eg, fibers, whiskers, and/or particulates, in the path of the oxide scale growth. The resultant composite is comprised of both interconnected metal and ceramic. Typically 5—30 vol % metal remains after processing. The composite product maintains many of the desirable properties of a ceramic however, the presence of the metal serves to increase the fracture toughness of the composite. [Pg.313]

The activation of aluminum with ultrasound or dispersion of liquid aluminum. The suspension of powder aluminum in petrol or n-geptane without oxygen is subjected to ultrasound the tough oxide film on the surface of aluminum is removed and aluminum becomes reactive. The second activation technique is the dispersion of liquid aluminum with argon or purified nitrogen flow into a finely dispersed state. It should be noted, however, that the most reactive aluminum powder for direct synthesis is the powder alloyed with transition metals (titanium, zirconium, niobium, tantalum) with the size of particles from 10 to 125 pm. [Pg.376]
