Toughening of MgAl2O4 spinel/ Si3N4 nanocomposite fabricated by spark plasma sintering
چکیده انگلیسی
The main objective of this work is to compare the hardness, fracture toughness, and optical transparency of MgAl2O4 spinel (magnesium aluminate), MgAl2O4 spinel/ Si3N4 nanocomposite, and the heat-treated spinel/Si3N4 nanocomposite. For this purpose, the commercial spinel nanopowder and the laboratory-made spinel/ Si3N4 nanocomposite powder were sintered using spark plasma sintering (SPS). A heat treatment at 1000 °C for 4 h was carried out on the as-sintered nanocomposite. The field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) mapping, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Nanoindentation, and Vickers microhardness analyses were used to determine microstructure, elemental analysis, functional group, hardness, and indentation toughness of the samples. The results showed that the hardness and toughness of the heat-treated sample are more than those of the as-SPSed nanocomposite as much as 15.7% and 25.7%, respectively. Also, the values of optical transmission of the nanocomposite sample in the visible range (400-800 nm) and infrared region (800-2000 nm) were lower than those of pure spinel.
