摘要
In this paper, zirconium diboride based ceramics added with 20 vol.% silicon carbide particle and 15 vol.% zirconia fiber (Z20S(p)15Z(f)) were prepared by hot-pressing at 1850 degrees C for 60 min under a uniaxial load of 30 MPa in Ar atmosphere. R-curves for Z20S(p)15Z(f) ceramics were studied using the indentation-strength in bending technique and the envelope method. The results indicated that these two testing methods were consistent and viable for estimating R-curve. Z20S(p)15Z(f) ceramics had high resistance to crack growth and damage tolerance with the 6.8 MPa m(1/2) of steady-state toughness. The toughening mechanism was fiber debonding, fiber pull-out, crack bridging, crack branching, crack deflection and transformation toughening. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
