- Abstract
- Carbides dispersed W composites, are the representative ones of strategic materials for military, nuclear and aerospace applications because of its unique high-temperature structural durability. Nevertheless, the progress in securing uniform carbide dispersion is still inadequate due to the lack of control for coarsening, agglomeration and coalescence phenomenon of carbides. We studied the thermodynamic stability, solid solution behavior of nano dispersoids, with help of 1st principle calculation, and high-temperature properties i.e., strength, ductility and ablation behavior. The samples were prepared with a commercial powders and in-situ W-MeC powders. In-situ W-MeC powders were obtained from high-energy ball milling of oxides/carbon mixture and subsequent carbothermal treatment. Those samples revealed a superb high-temperature 3-point–bend strength of 1425 MPa at 1000 oC and ductility increased more than 4 times at 1400 oC. This excellent property is attributed to homogeneous distribution of carbides in the W matrix and appropriate combinations of inter/intragranular fracture behaviors. However, the ablation properties that seem to be controlled by other factors, for example, oxidation resistance and complex interaction among gas, melt and oxide slag, other than uniform dispersion of carbides particles and grain size, provided inconsistent results in rating the materials performance.
