Journal of Ceramic Science and Technology

The Journal of Ceramic Science and Technology publishes original scientific articles on all topics of ceramic science and technology from all ceramic branches. The focus is on the scientific exploration of  the relationships between processing, microstructure and properties of sintered ceramic materials as well as on new processing routes for innovative ceramic materials. The papers may have either theoretical or experimental background. A high quality of publications will be guaranteed by a thorough double blind peer review process.

The Journal is published by Göller Verlag GmbH on behalf of the Deutsche Keramische Gesellschaft (DKG). Edited by Yu-Ping Zeng, Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China.

Abstract

An experimental investigation was performed to study the residual tensile strength (RTS) of liquid silicon infiltration (LSI)-based plain-weave reinforced Cf/C-SiC composites (2D C/C-SiC) after different loading cycles. The specimens were previously subjected to the cyclic stress of 57 MPa for the preselected numbers of cycles (102, 104 and 106, respectively) before the final quasi-static tensile test. The microstructures, fractured surfaces and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) after the quasi-static tensile test were characterized by means of Optical Microscopy (OM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and a classical mechanical push-rod dilatometer, respectively. The results showed that the RTS of the specimens after the preselected fatigue cycles numbers of 102, 104 and 106 increase to 90.9, 94.1 and 84.5 MPa, respectively, which are somewhat higher than that of virgin samples (79.7 MPa). Additionally, the tensile stress-strain curves of the post-fatigue specimens present cycle-independence within the region of linear response. Finally, the CTE in the range of 200 – 1000 °C gradually decreased with the increasing cycles owing to higher damage induced by fatigue stress along the loading direction.
