摘要
Carbon nanofiber (CNF)-dispersed B4C composites have been synthesized and consolidated directly from mixtures of elemental raw powders by pulsed electric current pressure sintering (1800 degrees C/10 min/30 MPa). A 15 vol% CNF/B4C composite with similar to 99% of dense homogeneous microstructures (similar to 0.40 mu m grains) revealed excellent mechanical properties at room temperature and high temperatures: a high bending strength (Sigma(b)) of similar to 710 MPa, a Vickers hardness (H-v) of similar to 36 GPa, a fracture toughness (K-IC) of similar to 7.9 MPa m(1/2), and high-temperature Sigma(b) of 590 MPa at 1600 degrees C in N-2. Interfaces between the CNF and the B4C matrix were investigated using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, EDS, and electron energy-loss spectroscopy.
