The influence of pressure on the oxidation resistance of C-ZrB2/SiC composites was studied. Materials were tested in air at 2000-2200 ?C at 1-900 mbar. SEM analysis on the tested samples revealed the formation of an outer compact layer of ZrO2 and an intermediate layer of ZrO2-SiO2 as well as a porous interface layer of ZrO2. SiC increase was beneficial up to 1650 ?C, then the trend was inverted. At 1 mbar all samples were visibly less damaged and displayed similar performance both at 2000 and 2200 ?C, indicating that oxidation resistance is mostly dominated by fiber consumption, which is more severe at ambient pressure.

Abstract
The influence of pressure on the oxidation resistance of C-ZrB2/SiC composites was studied. Materials were tested in air at 2000-2200 ?C at 1-900 mbar. SEM analysis on the tested samples revealed the formation of an outer compact layer of ZrO2 and an intermediate layer of ZrO2-SiO2 as well as a porous interface layer of ZrO2. SiC increase was beneficial up to 1650 ?C, then the trend was inverted. At 1 mbar all samples were visibly less damaged and displayed similar performance both at 2000 and 2200 ?C, indicating that oxidation resistance is mostly dominated by fiber consumption, which is more severe at ambient pressure.File in questo prodotto:
