Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Air Force is interested in developing fiber-reinforced ceramic composites that perform at ultra-high temperatures (greater or more than 1500 degrees C) under oxidative conditions, especially for hypersonic vehicles. Two potential approaches are: (a) Utilizing existing carbon-fiber-reinforced carbon-matrix composites (C/C) or carbon-fiber-reinforced silicon carbide-matrix composites (C/SiC) coated by thick (>100 um) ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) coatings, or (b) Replacing the C and SiC matrices of such composites with an ultra-high temperature matrix, processed by conventional composite techniques. The most investigated UHTCs are ZrB2/SiC and HfB2/SiC particulate composites (70:30 to 80:20 volume ratio). Wet processing via slurries is potentially a practical method for making such thick coatings and matrices. The project focused on developing slurry processing for thick ZrB2/SiC coatings on SiC and, to a limited extent, C/SiC composite substrates using preceramic and precarbon polymers combined with inert fillers and/or reactive metals. The evolved coatings were tested for their oxidation resistance under various conditions. A limited effort to assess the capability of bulk compositions made of slurries suitable for processing matrices for fiber-reinforced composites was also performed. Out of two distinctly different approaches and various compositions and preceramic polymers, the most promising stepwise approach was determined to be (1) forming ZrB2/C porous coatings ("preforms") processed from phenolic-based slurries, then (2) reacting the preform coatings with molten Si to form SiC and (3) converting residual Si to SiC. This technique resulted in highly dense, well adhering composite coatings that were 100 um thick and over. Thick coatings made by this approach provided much better characteristics and performance than other formulations and processes.

Download or read book Ultra High Temperature Ceramics written by William G. Fahrenholtz and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive book to focus on ultra-high temperature ceramic materials in more than 20 years Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics are a family of compounds that display an unusual combination of properties, including extremely high melting temperatures (>3000°C), high hardness, and good chemical stability and strength at high temperatures. Typical UHTC materials are the carbides, nitrides, and borides of transition metals, but the Group IV compounds (Ti, Zr, Hf) plus TaC are generally considered to be the main focus of research due to the superior melting temperatures and stable high-melting temperature oxide that forms in situ. Rather than focusing on the latest scientific results, Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics: Materials for Extreme Environment Applications broadly and critically combines the historical aspects and the state-of-the-art on the processing, densification, properties, and performance of boride and carbide ceramics. In reviewing the historic studies and recent progress in the field, Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics: Materials for Extreme Environment Applications provides: Original reviews of research conducted in the 1960s and 70s Content on electronic structure, synthesis, powder processing, densification, property measurement, and characterization of boride and carbide ceramics. Emphasis on materials for hypersonic aerospace applications such as wing leading edges and propulsion components for vehicles traveling faster than Mach 5 Information on materials used in the extreme environments associated with high speed cutting tools and nuclear power generation Contributions are based on presentations by leading research groups at the conference "Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics: Materials for Extreme Environment Applications II" held May 13-19, 2012 in Hernstein, Austria. Bringing together disparate researchers from academia, government, and industry in a singular forum, the meeting cultivated didactic discussions and efforts between bench researchers, designers and engineers in assaying results in a broader context and moving the technology forward toward near- and long-term use. This book is useful for furnace manufacturers, aerospace manufacturers that may be pursuing hypersonic technology, researchers studying any aspect of boride and carbide ceramics, and practitioners of high-temperature structural ceramics.

Book excerpt: Global population growth and tremendous economic development has brought us to the crossroads of long-term sustainability and risk of irreversible changes in the ecosystem. Energy efficient and ecofriendly technologies and systems are critically needed for further growth and sustainable development. While ceramic matrix composites were originally developed to overcome problems associated with the brittle nature of monolithic ceramics, today the composites can be tailored for customized purposes and offer energy efficient and ecofriendly applications, including aerospace, ground transportation, and power generation systems. The 9th International Conference on High Temperature Ceramic Matrix Composites (HTCMC 9) was held in Toronto, Canada, June 26-30, 2016 to discuss challenges and opportunities in manufacturing, commercialization, and applications for these important material systems. The Global Forum on Advanced Materials and Technologies for Sustainable Development (GFMAT 2016) was held in conjunction with HTCMC 9 to address key issues, challenges, and opportunities in a variety of advanced materials and technologies that are critically needed for sustainable societal development.
