摘要
High-density BAS/SiC composites were obtained from beta-SiC starting powder by the spark plasma sintering technique. Various physical properties of the BAS/SiC composites were investigated in detail, such as densification, phase analysis, microstructures and mechanical properties. The results demonstrated that the relative density of the BAS/SiC composites reached over 99.4% at 1900 degrees C. The SiC grains were uniformly distributed in the continuous BAS matrix which is probably because of complete infiltration of the SiC particles in BAS liquid-phase formed during sintering. The pull-out of SiC particles, crack deflection and bridging were observed as the major toughening mechanism. The flexural strength and fracture toughness of the BAS/SiC composites sintered at 1900 degrees C were up to 560 MPa and 7.0 MPa.m(1/2), respectively. (C) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
