Effect of boron carbide composition in SiC/B4C composite on surface temperature decay as revealed by thermal wave method
ثبت نشده
چکیده
We report the results of a thermal wave study on SiC/B4C composites of different B4C compositions. Thermal wave, generated subsequent to sample absorption of pulse laser, was observed by means of a wide-band infrared detector. The information content of the thermal wave is then analysed by using a least-squares method. Temperature decay time, as measured from thermal wave decay curve, varies with % of B4C in the composites. Up to 50% B4C the decay time was found to vary inversely with thermal diffusivity of the composites as predicted.

Boron carbide is one of the hardest materials. The combustion method was used to synthesize B4C-TiB2 nanocomposite powder in a B2O3-Mg-TiO2-C system. An experimental study of the formation of B4C–TiB2 nanoparticles was conducted in the thermal explosion mode. A mixture of B2O3:TiO2:Mg:C at a molecular ratio of 3:1:12:1 was chosen to obtain the B4C–TiB2. This powder mixture was milled for differ...
