Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily measure the length of indentation cracking by coating a smoothly finished surface with an opaque, colored volatile paint and drying it, and then pressing an indenter in and generating the indentation cracking. CONSTITUTION:The smoothly polished surface is coated with the opaque, colored volatile paint thinnly and uniformly. The paint is dried and then the Vickers or Knoop indenter is pressed in the coated surface to form indentation or indentation cracking in the surface. Then, the indentation and indentation cracking are discriminated and measured through an optical microscope.

As a method for measuring fracture toughness values that quantitatively indicate the degree of brittleness of ceramics such as alumina, silicon carbide, and silicon oxide,
A Vickers indenter or Knoop indenter is forcibly pushed into the smooth surface of ceramics, and a crack is formed from the indentation and the end of the indentation. There is an indentation method that determines the size and hardness of the surface. Furthermore, there is a method in which an external force is applied to the specimen having the indentation crack, the stress at the time of fracture is examined, and the fracture toughness value is determined from the size of the indentation crack and the fracture stress. In both cases, it is essential to accurately determine the length of the indentation crack in order to accurately measure the fracture toughness value.

For this reason, the conventional method shown in Figure 1 requires a sufficient surface finish on the test piece surface (maximum surface roughness of 0.1 μm or less), which has the disadvantage of requiring a great deal of labor to prepare the test piece. . The width of the indentation crack is very narrow (approximately 0.2 μm)
(below), making it difficult to identify with an optical microscope. Therefore, there is a drawback that accurate arrival is not guaranteed.

The present invention involves indenting a ceramic indentation by injecting a Vickers indenter, chirui, or Knoop indenter into a smooth surface, generating a crack from the end of the indentation of the indenter, and identifying the size of the crack using an optical microscope. In the crack identification method, a non-transparent colored volatile paint is applied thinly to the smooth finished surface before the indenter is pushed in, and after drying, the indenter is pushed in to prevent cracks from forming at the end of the indentation. This method is characterized by identifying cracks that have formed using an optical microscope.

FIG. 2 shows the procedure of the present invention. It is sufficient to polish the surface of the ceramic sample to a maximum surface roughness R-A10 of 8 μm that can be easily obtained with a surface grinder using an ordinary diamond grindstone. Next, a thin, uniform coating of non-transparent, colored, volatile paint is applied to the smooth and polished surface. Such paints include oil-based quick-drying inks. After the paint has dried, a Vickers or Knoop indenter is pressed into the paint-applied surface to form indentations and indentation cracks on the surface. The size of the formed indentation and indentation crack is then measured.
