Abstract
In Part 1 of this study, we investigated the macrokinetic parameters and phase formation mechanism in the combustion front of Zr–Nb–B mixtures. In the second part, we produced consolidated samples of solid solutions NbB2-(0.100%)ZrB2 by hot pressing the combustion-derived powders at 1900 °C. By measuring the crystallographic parameters, mechanical and thermophysical properties of the produced bulk samples, we obtained valuable insights into the behavior of the solid solutions. Our results pave the way for the application-specific fine-tuning of the mechanical properties and thermal conductivity of diboride solid solutions in the Zr–Nb–B system for ultra-high temperature applications. Our findings have significant implications for the development of advanced materials with outstanding performance in extreme environments.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
