Popis: | Boron carbide added with 0–20 wt% carbon fibers was subject to Si infiltration. Samples mainly consist of B13C2, β-SiC and unreacted Si. Some amount of SiB6 and α-SiC was also detected, while formation of B12(B,C,Si)3 phase was suppressed due to short infiltration time. The carbon fibers react with Si and result in formation of a composite core-shell fiber with SiC-shell and C-core. Theoretical estimations suggest that these composite fibers have a strong influence on the enhancement of the bending strength. Although apparently in good agreement with experimental data showing an increase of bending strength up to 510 ± 27 MPa in the sample with 10 wt% carbon fiber, the implications of phase changes with the carbon fiber amount has to be carefully considered. At higher amounts of carbon fibers, bending strength decreases. |
