利用有機化學氣相沉積法結合流體化床技術,以六羰鉻Cr(CO)6為先導物和氧化鋁顆粒為基材,製備奈米級的鉻化物顆粒均勻的分散在氧化鋁顆粒上。先導物在流體床內裂解後的主要組成為氧化鉻(Cr2O3)、介穩相碳化鉻(CrC1-x)和碳(C ) 。當流體床的腔體溫度為300 oC和400 oC時,先導物裂解後沉積顆粒分別具有非晶和結晶的Cr2O3 相。經過1150 oC,10-4torr真空下,2小時高溫碳化熱處理後,300 oC流體床粉末中的氧化鉻碳化成碳化鉻(Cr3C2),而400 oC流體床粉末則碳化成碳化鉻-Cr3C2和Cr7C3的混合相。若在真空度為100 torr時進行熱處理,由於易形成一氧化碳(CO)而致導氧化鉻並無法碳化。當加入大量的碳時,在同樣的熱處理條件下,其碳化成Cr7C3。若在甲烷-氫氣的混合氣氛中,其可在800oC中形成Cr3C2。
以流體床粉末作為燒結的起始粉末,在高壓燒結過程中Cr2O3 和Al2O3可形成固溶體(Al2O3-Cr2O3),另一方面Cr2O3 可以和碳反應形成碳化鉻(Cr3C2、Cr7C3)顆粒。因此本系統中同時存在固溶強化以及奈米第二相顆粒強化二種強化機制。在1000 oC持溫1小時而後升到1400 oC進行熱壓燒結,形成大量的固溶體,而使晶粒明顯成長。而若在1150 oC持溫1小時而後升到1400 oC進行熱壓燒結,形成大量的碳化鉻- Cr3C2強化顆粒,由於其有抑止晶粒成長的特性而使其氧化鋁晶粒最小。若直接升溫到1400 oC 時其形成的碳化鉻包含Cr3C2、Cr7C3兩相。
從電子顯微鏡觀察中發現碳化鉻-Cr3C2和氧化鋁間屬於不一致(non-coherence)介面,然而碳化鉻-Cr7C3和氧化鋁間則屬於半一致(semi-coherence)介面。此二介面皆為没有玻璃相存在,顯示介面間存在很強的鍵結,又因為其細化氧化鋁晶粒因而強化材料。另外,由於強化相碳化鉻和基材氧化鋁之間因為熱膨脹係數差異產生殘留應力,導致在氧化鋁晶粒內形成差排,這些差排將可能對裂縫的前進路徑產生影響,而助於提升其強度和韌性,另外當裂縫遇到奈米的碳化鉻時產生的裂縫偏折及裂縫分支的作用也可提升其韌性。
Nanoscaled Cr2O3 powders coated on alumina particles have been produced by means of metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) in a fluidized bed, using the pyrolysis of Cr(CO)6 precursor. Amorphous and crystalline Cr2O3 particles were obtained when pyrolysis temperature of was raised to 300 oC and 400oC, respectively. In order to prepare the nanoscaled Cr3C2 powder from the Cr2O3, carbonizing behavior of the Cr2O3 particles was investigated.
It was found that the amorphous Cr2O3 transformed into Cr3C2 at 1150 oC in graphite furnace in vacuum (10-4 torr), while the crystalline Cr2O3 transformed into a mixture of Cr7C3 and Cr3C2. Cr2O3 can’t carbonize at 1150oC in vacuum level of 100 torr. However, Cr2O3 carbonizes into Cr7C3 when it is mixed with sufficient graphite before the heat treatment. Cr2O3 also carbonizes into Cr3C2 if it was heated in a mixed gas of CH4 and H2 at 800 oC.
The composition of decomposed precursor of Cr(CO)6 includes Cr2O3, CrC1-x, and C. Cr2O3 react with Al2O3 to form a solid solution and also it react with carbon to transform into chromium carbide. Solid solution (Al2O3 - Cr2O3) and nanosized Cr-carbide (Cr3C2 and Cr7C3) particles dispersing uniformly on the Al2O3 matrix were formed after the hot-pressing. The microstructures show that the interface between the nanosized particle and matrix is non-glassy, the grain size in nanocomposite is smaller than that in monolithic Al2O3. The fracture mode of nanocomposite is transgranular and there are network dislocations near the Cr-carbide particles. The strength and toughness of nanocomposite are better than pure alumina. The possible strengthening mechanisms resulting from the solid solution and reinforced particles are discussed in this study.
