Zusammenfassung: | A temperature resistance buoyancy material was fabricated through a tert-butyl alcohol gelcasting process with borosilicate glass (BG) and hollow glass microspheres (HGMs) as the matrix and filler, respectively. The effects of the mass ratio of HGMs to BG and sintering temperature on the microstructure, thermal conductivity, and mechanical properties of the composite were studied. The results show that HGMs were bonded together by the BG, and the sample sintered at 750°C exhibited a broad pore size distribution, from several microns to more than one hundred microns. The thermal conductivity experimental values of all the samples were less than that of Hashin-Shtrikman upper bound (HS+) prediction but agreed well with that predicted from effective medium percolation theory. The relationship between compressive strength and relative density was predicted by the Gibson-Ashby model, with the calibration factor phi below 0.7. Young′s modulus values obtained from the experiment were below that of HS+ prediction. The modulus values of the four types of samples sintered at 650°C agreed well with the Pabst model prediction, while the values of the samples sintered at 700°C and 750°C were distributed in a zone between Ashby-Gibson model and HS+ prediction. |
