A High-Strain-Rate Alumina-Based Ceramic Composite

An alumina‐based ceramic codispersed with zirconia and mullite was synthesized with a submicron grain size. At high temperatures, steady‐state creep with very limited grain growth was achieved for samples with 40 vol% alumina, 30 vol% zirconia, and 30 vol% mullite (AZ30M30). Constant stress compress...

Zusammenfassung:An alumina‐based ceramic codispersed with zirconia and mullite was synthesized with a submicron grain size. At high temperatures, steady‐state creep with very limited grain growth was achieved for samples with 40 vol% alumina, 30 vol% zirconia, and 30 vol% mullite (AZ30M30). Constant stress compressive creep behavior of AZ30M30 showed a stress exponent of 2 and an activation energy of 880 kJ/mol. A strain rate of 0.01 s−1 was obtained for AZ30M30 at 60 MPa and 1500°C, indicating the potential for high‐strain‐rate superplasticity.
