FSEM, TEM, HRTEM, SAED, XRD, FTIR and Raman, ICP- AES, laser particle size analyzer, oxygen and nitrogen analyzer, carbon/sulfur determinator and TG-DSC were employed for the characterization of the morphology, structure, chemical composition and thermal stability of the as-synthesized ZrC samples. The as-synthesized samples demonstrated high purity, low oxygen content and evenly distributed ZrC nano-powders with an average particle size of 50nm. In addition, the effects of endothermic rate and the possible chemical reaction mechanism were also discussed.展开更多

The precursor was air-stable and exhibited excellent solubility and rheology. These properties are useful for the processing of C/C-ZrC composites v/a precursor infiltration and pyrolysis （PIP） process. The polymer to ceramic conversion was investigated by TG, XRD and TEM. Nanosized ZrC was formed by pyrolysis of this precursor at 1300 ℃ in argon with ceramic yield of 57.8%.展开更多

The morphologies, compositions and phases of the composite coatings were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS) and X-ray diffraction(XRD). The results indicated that the morphologies, compositions and phases of the composite coatings were related to the deposition temperature, the flow rate of the carrier H2 gas, and the ratio of C/Zr. Moreover, the co-deposition mechanism of the composite coatings was also studied. It was found that different deposition temperatures resulted in different deposition mechanisms. At temperatures in the range of 1150–1250℃, the Zr C-SiC co-deposition was controlled by the surface kinetic process. At temperatures in the range of 1250–1400℃, the Zr C-SiC co-deposition was controlled by the mass transport process.展开更多
