摘要
Carbide boronizing is a promising approach to obtain fine grained boron carbide based ceramics with improved mechanical properties. In this work, reaction process, microstructural characteristics and mechanical properties of BxC-TaB2(x = 3.7, 4.9, 7.1) ceramics were comprehensively investigated via this method. Dense BxC-TaB2 ceramics with refined microstructure were obtained from submicro tantalum carbide and boron powder mixtures at 1800?C/50 MPa/5 min by spark plasma sintering. The stoichiometry of boron carbide was determined from lattice parameters and Raman shift. It was found that uniformly distributed TaB2 grains in the BxC matrix is favor of the densification process and restricting grain growth.Besides, planar defects with high density were observed from the as-formed B7.1 C grains and transient stress was considered to contribute to the densification involved with plastic deformation. Microstructural observations indicate the dissolution of oxygen in the TaB2 lattice and most of the B7.1 C/TaB2 phase boundaries were clean. Owing to the highly faulted structure and finer grain size, as-obtained BxC-TaB2 ceramics exhibit high Vickers hardness(33.3–34.4 GPa at 9.8 N) and relatively high flexural strength ranging from 440 to 502 MPa.
