Description

Method for preparing low-porosity SiC ceramic matrix composite by combining SLS and PIP
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of 3D printing of SiC ceramics, in particular to a method for preparing a SiC ceramic matrix composite material with low porosity by combining SLS and PIP.
Background
Silicon carbide ceramics have excellent performances such as high strength, high hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and the like in a high-temperature environment, are widely applied to various fields such as aerospace, nuclear energy, automobiles, petrochemical industry, microelectronics and the like at present, but the high strength and the high hardness of the silicon carbide ceramics also bring great difficulty to material processing, especially parts with complex surfaces and internal structures, have long processing period and high cost, and become bottleneck problems.
The additive manufacturing technology is a novel forming mode, and different from the traditional subtractive manufacturing mode, the additive manufacturing technology can directly form a three-dimensional structure by increasing a model drawn by a computer layer by layer. The Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) technique was one of the 3D printing additive manufacturing techniques, originally proposed by declicard, division of Austin by the university of Texas in 1986, and subsequently commercialized by DTM corporation. The laser selectively irradiates on the powder in the working cylinder, the melted resin is used as a binder to bond the surrounding powder together, then the working cylinder descends, the feeding cylinders at the two ends ascend, the powder spreading roller pushes the powder in the feeding cylinders to cover the sintered part of the working cylinder, a layer of sintering is completed, the sintering is repeated until the sintering of the test piece is completed, the unsintered powder is removed, and the three-dimensional solid part is obtained. However, ceramic parts produced by the SLS process still have some fatal defects such as low density, high porosity, and poor mechanical properties due to non-uniformity.
To improve the compactibility and mechanical properties of molded parts, some scholars have proposed hybrid manufacturing methods such as Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)/Cold Isostatic Pressing (CIP) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)/Melt Infiltration (MI), which can improve the compactibility and mechanical properties of ceramic matrix composites. However, the methods of SLS/CIP and SLS/MI still have some drawbacks to overcome. Such as the SLS/CIP method is not suitable for manufacturing ceramic matrix composites with complex internal structures, the high temperature performance of the samples manufactured by SLS/MI is not ideal, etc.
The preparation method of the SiC composite material mainly comprises a chemical vapor infiltration method (CVI), a molten silicon infiltration method (LSI), a polymer impregnation cracking technology (PIP) and the like. Compared with CVI, LSI and other methods, the PIP method has great advantages in the aspects of saving material preparation time, reducing material sintering temperature, reducing material manufacturing cost and the like.
At present, although there are reports on the combination of SLS and PIP for manufacturing ceramic matrix composites, the obtained SiC ceramic matrix composites still have the defects of insufficient compactness and higher porosity. In addition, although the combined use of PIP techniques can improve the density of the SLS-prepared SiC ceramic matrix composite to some extent, the polymer precursors can clog the external pores in the SiC ceramic matrix during multiple dip-cracking, resulting in failure of the polymer precursors to enter the internal pores during subsequent dip-cracking, and thus failure to achieve lower porosity and thus greater density.

The density and porosity of the SiC ceramic matrix composites prepared in examples 1 to 3 and comparative examples 1 to 3 were measured by archimedes' method, and the results are shown in table 1 below:
TABLE 1
Porosity (%) Density (g/cm) 3 )
Example 1 14.39 2.77
Example 2 10.68 2.88
Example 3 12.16 2.84
Comparative example 1 18.83 2.63
Comparative example 2 20.42 2.57
Comparative example 3 25.81 2.40
From the results of table 1, it is seen that the porosity of the SiC ceramic matrix composites prepared in examples 1 to 3 of the present invention is significantly reduced compared to the porosity of the SiC ceramic matrix composites prepared without the addition of the epoxy fibers (comparative example 3). Wherein the average particle diameter of the SiC powder has a certain influence on the effect of reducing the porosity, and the porosity is lowest when the average particle diameter of the SiC powder is 50 μm.
Furthermore, as is evident from the results of comparative examples 1 and 2, the lengths of the epoxy resin fibers have a significant effect on the effect of reducing the porosity, and epoxy resin fibers that are too short (0.22 mm, comparative example 1) or too long (5 mm, comparative example 2) result in a significantly increased porosity as compared to examples 1 to 3 (the length of the epoxy resin fibers is 1 mm).
