摘要
In this work, the pressureless sintering behavior of boron carbide (B4C) ceramics with 5-10 wt.% Al-Si binary additives was studied, while separate addition of individual elemental Al and Si was also investigated for comparison. Near fully-dense B4C ceramics can be prepared at 2150-2250 degrees C when 5-7 wt.% of Al-Si with molar ratio of 9:1 is added. In contrast to individual Al and Si, the use of the binary Al-Si additives in B4C ceramics results in a refined microstructure and increasing the Al-Si molar ratio from 1:1 to 9:1 promotes the densification of the B4C ceramics. Energy dispersion spectrum (EDS) analysis demonstrates the formation of SiC at the B4C grain boundaries. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
