The impact of base glass morphology and post heat-treatment protocol on the mechanical properties (Vickers hardness and Young’s modulus) of a multi-component glass-ceramic was examined. Two parent chalcogenide glasses with identical composition but varying morphology (homogeneous and phase separated) were evaluated for their mechanical properties following identical thermal processing to induce crystallization. The nucleation and growth rates of the starting materials were compared for the two glasses, and the resulting crystal phases and phase fractions formed through heat treatment were quantified and related to measured mechanical properties of the glass ceramics. The presence of a Pb-rich amorphous phase with a higher crystal formation tendency in the phase-separated parent glass significantly impacted the volume fraction of the crystal phases formed after heat-treatment. Pb-rich cubic crystal phases were found to be dominant in the resulting glass ceramic, yielding a minor enhancement of the material’s mechanical properties. This was found to be less than a more moderate enhancement of mechanical properties due to the formation of the dominant needle-like As2Se3 crystallites resulting from heat treatment of the homogeneous, commercially melted parent glass. The greater enhancement of both Vickers hardness and modulus in this glass ceramic attributable to the high-volume fraction of anisotropic As2Se3 crystallites in the post heat-treated commercial melt highlights the important role base glass morphology can play on post heat-treatment microstructure.

Microstructure And Mechanical Properties

Ternary ZrC-SiC-ZrB2 ceramic composites were prepared by hot pressing at 1900 °C for 60 min under a pressure of 30 MPa in argon. The influence of ZrB2 content on the microstructure and mechanical properties of ZrC-SiC-ZrB2 composites was investigated. Examination of SEM showed that the microstructure of the composites consisted of the equiaxed ZrB2, ZrC and SiC grains, and there was a slight tendency of reduction for grain size in ZrC with increasing ZrB2 content. The hardness increased considerably from 23.3 GPa for the ZS material to 26.4 GPa for the ZS20B material. Flexural strength was a strong function of ZrB2 content, increasing from 407 MPa without ZrB2 addition to 627 MPa when the ZrB2 content was 20vol.%. However, the addition of ZrB2 has little influence on the fracture toughness, ranging between 5.5 and 5.7 MPam1/2.
