The interfacial reaction kinetics and mechanism were studied by using SEM, EDS and XRD. The results show that the content fluctuation of reactive elements such as C, Ti and Si appears in interfacial reaction layers, and multi-layer interfacial reaction compounds form. Alloying element Nb in matrix remarkably diffuses into interfacial reaction zone and changes the activation energy for the interfacial reaction layer growth following a role of parabolic rate. The activation energy (Qk) and (k0) of SCS-6 SiC/super α2 and SCS-6 SiC/Ti2AlNb are 317.664 kJ/mol, 175.709 kJ/mol and 5.4438×10-2 m/s1/2, 1.44×10-5 m/s1/2; respectively, and the diffusion coefficient (DC) is about 10-18—10-20 m2/s. It is confirmed that the SCS-6 SiC/Ti-Al intermetallic composites have higher interface compatibility and stability. Furthermore, compared with SCS-6 SiC/super α2, the interface compatibility and stability of SCS-6 SiC/Ti2AlNb are even higher.展开更多

The as-cast material was obtained by titanium particles, carbon fibers and pure aluminum. Titanium particles and carbon fibers were mixed and pressed to form a preform firstly, and then molten pure aluminum was pressed into the preform, subsequently, cooled rapidly. In situ reaction samples were obtained by heating the as-cast material from 600 to 1000℃ for I h. The microstructural evolution of in situ reaction samples was analyzed by scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray. In addition, the phase composition of products was inspected by X-ray diffraction. Experimental results showed that the dominant product of TiAl3 and a small amount of Al4C3 were formed at low temperature. While TiAl3 was not stable at high temperature, along with its decrease, TiC phase became favorable. In the final products, TiAl3, TiC and Al4C3 were detected. Thus, the in situ reaction for Ti-Al-C system composite proceeded a formed-decomposed-precipitated mechanism.展开更多
