In this paper we will investigate gravity induced skeletal settling during liquid phase sintering. In this approach skeletal settling will be combined with extrication of some solidphase domains. The main goal will be the need to relate dissolution, diffusion and precipitation phenomena to essential geometric and topological changes of the tungstennickel porous microstructure influenced by differential skeletal settling due to large density difference between tungsten domains and the matrix. This study will be based on domain topology (no shape restriction) and control-volume methodology. The microstructural evolution will be simulated by computation of displacement of the center of mass (combined gravity induced settling and random motion) and mass transport due to dissolution and precipitation at the interfaces between solid-phase and liquid matrix.

In this paper, we investigated numerically gravity induced skeletal settling during liquid phase sintering. The microstructural evolution will be simulated by simultaneous computation of displacement of the center of mass and mass transport due to dissolution and precipitation at the interfaces between solid-phase and liquid matrix. Common to this study based on domain methodology for definition of regular multi-domain model will be the need to relate some diffusional phenomena to essential geometric and topological attributes of the W-Ni porous microstructure influenced by skeletal settling combined with extrication of some solid-phase domains during liquid phase sintering.

A two-dimensional numerical method based on the Brownian motion model and on the Densification model for simulation of liquid phase sintering in microgravity environment will be developed. Both models will be based on domain topology (two-dimensional particle representation) and control volume methodology and on three submodels for domain translation, solid skeleton formation and domain extrication. This method will be tested in order to conduct a study of diffusion phenomena and microgravitational effects on microstructural evolution influenced by skeletal settling combined with solid-phase extrication during liquid phase sintering of porous W-Ni system.

The article gives the results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies of the structure of ceramic matrix composite materials produced from iron ore waste. It is established that inside the matrix and the granules during the firing the processes of solid-phase and liquid-phase sintering with formation of new mineral phases take place. It is shown that in the matrix a liquid phase is formed, which fills intergranular cells and binds the particles of minerals together.

Grain Coarsening

From many experiments with mixtures of small and large grains, it can be concluded that during liquid phase sintering, smaller grains partially dissolve and a solid phase precipitates on the larger grains and grain coarsening occurs. The growth rate can be controlled either by the solid-liquid phase boundary reaction or by diffusion through the liquid phase. The microstructure may change either by larger grains growing during the Ostwald ripening process or by shape accommodation. In this study, two-dimensional mathematical approach for simulation of grain coarsening by grain boundary migration based on a physical and corresponding numerical modeling of liquid phase sintering will be considered. A combined mathematical method of analyzing viscous deformation and solute diffusion in liquid bridge between two grains with different sizes will be proposed. The viscous FE method will be used for calculating meniscus of the liquid bridge, with the interfacial tensions taken into consideration. The FE method for diffusion will be also implemented by using the same mesh as the deformation analysis.

The interaction of components and structure formation were studied in liquid phase sintering of Co-Sn and Co-Sn-Cu powder materials. The powders of commercially pure metals were mixed with an organic binder and applied on the steel substrate. Sintering was performed under vacuum at temperatures of 820 and 1100 °C. The structure of sintered alloys was investigated by X-ray diffractometry and electron probe microanalysis, and microhardness (HV0.01) of the structural components was measured. It has been found that the nature of interaction of the liquid tin with the solid phase at the initial stage of sintering affects the formation of structure and porosity of Co-Sn and Co-Sn-Cu alloys considerably. In Co-Sn alloys, diffusion of tin into cobalt particles leads to the formation of intermetallic compounds, which hinders spreading of the liquid phase. This results in a porous defect structure formed in Co-Sn alloys. In Co-Sn-Cu alloys, at the initial stage of sintering the liquid phase enriched with copper is formed that wets the cobalt particles and contributes to their regrouping. As a result of this, materials with minor porosity are formed.

Superconducting wires have been applied for the fabrication of superconducting magnets in nuclear magneto-resonance (NMR), Magneto-resonance imaging (MRI) and so on. MgB2 has the highest critical temperature of superconducting transition (TC39K) among intermetallic compound superconductive materials. This means that MgB2 Superconductive wire doesn’t need expensive liquid He for cooling. We used the original method of the three-dimensional penetration casting (3DPC) in this laboratory to fabricate the MgB2/Al composite. Our 3DPC method for fabricating composite materials can disperse particles in the matrix homogenously without any aggregation and control volume fractions of composites within the range of 4 – 40%, even when particle size is less than 1 m. Thus, these composite materials can be processed by machining, extrusion and rolling. In the composite material we made, MgB2 particles dispersed to the Al matrix uniformly. The TC was determined by electrical resistivity and magnetization to be about 37 – 39K. We succeeded in extruding MgB2/Al composite billet to 1mm wire. Microstructures of these samples have been confirmed by SEM method. MgB2/Al composite billet and extruded wire were showed there no cracks inside the materials.

Alumina reinforced aluminum matrix composites (Al-5wt.%Si-Al2O3) fabricated by powder metallurgy through hot isotactic pressing were sintered in different processes, i.e. solid and liquid phase sintering. Optical microscopy (OM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) techniques were used to characterize the sintered composites. The effects of solid phase and liquid phase sintering on density, microstructure, microhardness, compression and shear strength were investigated. It was found that in situ chemical reaction was completed in solid phase sintering, but the composites had lower microhardness, comprehension and shear strength due to low density and segregation of alumina and Si particles in microstructure. Segregation of reinforcement particles in solid phase sintering resulted from character of solid reaction and Si diffusion at high temperature over a long hold time.

In recent years, a range of computer simulation models leading to a better understanding of liquid phase sintering phenomena, have been developed with the aim of simulating the detailed evolution of microstructure during grain growth. Some liquid phase sintered materials show both macrostructural and microstructural effects associated with gravity force. Therefore we will develop a numerical procedure for the estimation of how much gravity will influence domain (two-dimensional particle representation) growth, domain boundary migration and solid skeleton formation due to gravity induced segregation during liquid phase sintering. The method used for the simulation of a gravity field will be based on the settling procedure. Gravity induced settling will be separated into two stages - Free Settling and Skeletal Settling. Isolated solid phase domains fall under gravity and slide down over the already settled domains (free settling). During settling they make point contacts with each other. Necks between them then form and start to grow until the equilibrium dihedral angle between the domain boundaries and the liquid is established. Thus a solid skeleton forms and skeletal settling of a connected solid structure takes place. .

The liquid-phase sintering at 1860‒2100 °C was used to prepare the silicon-carbide materials with the 5‒10 weigh percent of oxide additions. The SiC material with the 20 weigh percent of three-component MgO‒Y2O3‒Al2O3system addition showed the ultimate physical and mechanical properties. The mechanical characteristics of the liquidphase sintered materials with the 15 weigh percent of the three-component oxides addition exceed those of both the reactive-sintered and the solid-phase sintered materials and approach to those of the hot-pressed materials.Ill. 5.
