Microstructure and Fracture Toughness of Hot-Pressed Silicon Carbide Reinforced with Silicon Carbide Whisker
The effects of p-Sic whisker addition on the microstructural evolution and fracture toughness (K,c) of hot-pressed SIC were investigated. Most of the whiskers added disappeared during the densification process by transformation into the a-phase. The remaining whiskers acted as nuclei for grain growth, resulting in the formation of large tabular grains around the whiskers. The tabular grains aro...
متن کاملSTRENGTH AND FRACTURE TOUGHNESS OF WHISKER REINFORCED DENTAL RESIN-BASED COMPOSITES
Enhancing the properties of dental resin composites is of interest to researchers. The objective of the present investigation was to improve the strength and fracture toughness of dental composites via addition of silicon carbide whiskers and substitution of commonly used filler materials with stabilized zirconia ceramic powder. It was also intended to study the effect of powder- to- whisker ra...
متن کاملMode I Fracture Toughness of a Small-Grained Silicon Nitride: Orientation, Temperature, and Crack Length Effects
The Mode I fracture toughness (KIC) of a small-grained Si3N4 was determined as a function of hot-pressing orientation, temperature, testing atmosphere, and crack length using the single-edge precracked beam method. The diameter of the Si3N4 grains was <0.4 μm, with aspect ratios of 2–8. KIC at 25°C was 6.6 ± 0.2 and 5.9 ± 0.1 MPa?m1/2 for the T–S and T–L orientations, respectively. This differe...
متن کاملEffects of the Amorphous Oxide Intergranular Layer Structure and Bonding on the Fracture Toughness of a High Purity Silicon Nitride
The microstructural evolution and structural characteristics and transitions in the thin grainboundary oxide films in a silicon nitride ceramic, specifically between two adjacent grains and not the triple junctions, are investigated to find their effect on the macroscopic fracture properties. It is found that by heat treating a model Si3N4-2wt% Y2O3 ceramic for ~200 hr at 1400°C in air, the fra...
متن کاملPattern Photoresist Silicon Silicon Nitride Silicon Photoresist Silicon Nitride Silicon Etch Nitride Remove Photoresist
In this proposal we seek to establish a porous silicon based etching process in the WTC microfabrication laboratory. The new process will allow us to etch high aspect ratio holes through a wafer. Holes like these are important for decreasing the dead volume of connections between micro and macro systems and for increasing the complexity of micro-fluidic systems. At the present time, the minimum...
