摘要
The structure evolution of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in Al2O3-C matrix with silicon and microsilica additives was investigated. The influences of silicon/microsilica additives as well as silicon additive on the properties of Al2O3-C refractories were analyzed. The results show that a greater content of SiO vapor is formed through the reaction of silicon and microsilica, which stimulates the structure evolution of MWCNTs and facilitates the formation of SiC whiskers at > 800℃. With the formation of large amount of SiC whiskers, the CMOR of Al2O3-C refractories with silicon and microsilica reaches 22.56 MPa, which is greater than that of refractories with only silicon (i.e., 19.24 MPa). However, the specimen without microsilica has a greater residual strength ratio (i.e., 43.51%), compared to the specimen with microsilica (i.e., 28.65%). It is indicated that the MWCNTs are more beneficial to toughening, and SiC whiskers are responsible for strengthening. © 2017, Editorial Department of Journal of the Chinese Ceramic Society.
