Influence of Slip Viscosity on the Mechanical Properties of High Purity Alumina made by Gelcasting

Ceramic particulate composites in the system SiC-TiC-TiB2 sliding against SiC and Al2O3 under water
(1999)
The tribological behaviour of SiC, SiC-TiC and SiC-TiC-TiB2 was determined in oscillating sliding against SiC and -Al2O3 in water at room temperature. The tribo-systems with the composite materials containing TiC and TiB2 differ significantly from the systems with the single phase SiC: The wear is reduced and the friction is increased. The wear reduction up to a factor of 10 is mainly due to the formation of an oxide film containing titanium oxides which is soft, stable in water and well adhering to the bulk material. This oxide film is transferred to the alumina ball but not to the silicon carbide ball.
Ceramics are of increasing interest for application in many branches of technique. In order to improve the tribological performance of ceramic materials, composites on the basis of silicon carbide with different amounts of titanium carbide, boron carbide, titanium diboride and free carbon in the form of graphite were manufactured by a reaction sintering process.
The friction and wear behaviour of these composites was investigated with oscillating sliding motion in unlubricated tests at room temperature on different levels of relative humidity. Additional tests were performed under water lubrication, revealing the superior behaviour of composites for special test conditions. A major influence of the free carbon on friction or wear behaviour was not observed. The tribological behaviour in air as well as under water is mainly dependant on the amount of titanium phases.
The isoelectric point is a material property for the characterization of acid-base behavior of the powder surface. The IEP of two alumina powders (AKP-30, Grade A) with different particle size characteristics in aqueous suspension has been determined by colloid vibration current (CVI) and particle charge detection (PCD) methods in moderately concentrated suspensions in order to qualify these methods for a future standardization. The solid loading of the suspensions were 1 and 5 vol%. The comparison of the IEP determined by PCD and CVI was in good agreement. However, the solid loading dependence of IEP and a large IEP hysteresis (at 1 vol%) were observed, which do not allow a proper determination of the IEP. The recording of the potential curve and therfore the determination of the IEP with CVI was difficult for the suspension of Grade A powder due to formation of agglomerates at pH values near the pHIEP.
