Autoclave processing and sintering of ZrB2-ZrO2 powders and investigation of microstructural and some mechanical properties of bulk products
Abstract
In this study, the production of ZrB2-ZrO2 powders and
their sintered bodies was aimed by utilizing mechanical activation assisted autoclave process
and pressureless sintering (PS) or spark plasma sintering (SPS) techniques. ZrCl4,
B2O3 and Mg powders were used as starting materials and
the powder mixtures were mechanically activated for 5 min by using high energy
ball milling system. Mechanically activated powders were heated in an autoclave
at 450°C for 12 h and subsequently purified by HCl leaching. Pure powders were
consolidated by PS (1700°C, 6 h) and SPS (1700°C, 60 MPa, 15 min) to obtain the
bulk samples. Characterization studies of the powders and sintered products involve
the XRD, SEM, SM, OM techniques, particle size and Archimedes density
measurements, microhardness and wear tests. Synthesized powders comprise of ZrB2
and ZrO2 phases with 78.5 % wt. ZrB2 content and have an
average particle size of 203 nm. The bulk samples produced by PS and SPS
techniques have relative densities of 92.8 % and 99.3 %, respectively and the
microhardness reaches to the value of 12.6 GPa. The bulk sample fabricated by
SPS technique having a wear volume loss of 8,52 ´ 10-3 mm3
reveals a smooth wear track
instead of micro-grooves along the sliding direction.
