The paper reviews the results of development of a new class of high-temperature composites based on niobium and various types of reinforcers continuous monocrystalline fibers (MCF) α-Al2O3, with TiN, Mo, W barrier coatings, and with controlled (Si, Ti) and uncontrolled (O, C) impurities. The analysis of Nb–Si, Nb–C, Nb–O binary diagrams and Nb–Si–Ti, Nb–Fe–Ti ternary diagrams was performed, on the basis of which the matrix compositions were selected. The basis for the preparation of composites was the powder method of mechanical alloying of the mixture preparing, followed by its pressing together with α-Al2O3 MCF by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and further preparation of experimental samples. An analysis of the interaction of fibers with a matrix was carried out, where the matrix was Nb or system on the basis of the above mentioned binary or ternary diagrams. |
