A novel reactive phosphorus and sulfur-containing monomer (bis(acryloxyethyldiphenylphosphate)sulfone, BADPS) was synthesized to enhance the comprehensive performance of unsaturated polyester resin (UPR), and corresponding flame-retardant unsaturated polyester resins (FR-UPRs) with various amounts of BADPS were prepared by radical bulk polymerization. The flame retardancy and thermal and mechanical properties of the UPR samples were investigated by limiting oxygen index (LOI) measurements, cone calorimetry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), a thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and a tension test. The results showed that the introduction of BADPS remarkably enhanced the flame resistance and high-temperature stability, as well as the tensile performance of UPR. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and Raman spectroscopy studies revealed that BADPS can efficaciously promote the formation of UPR char residue with an improved microstructure and increased graphitization degree, which enhancedthe high-temperature stability and char yield of UPR. Additionally, a thermogravimetry-Fourier transform infrared (TG-FTIR) analysis corroborated that the evolution of combustible volatiles from UPR decomposition was substantially restrained by the incorporation of BADPS, which is beneficial for the suppression of fire hazards in UPR.

AbstractHigh-entropy ceramics have potential to improve the mechanical properties and high-temperature stability over traditional ceramics, and high entropy nitrides and carbonitrides (HENs and HECNs) are particularly attractive for high temperature and high hardness applications. The synthesis of 5 bulk HENs and 4 bulk HECNs forming single-phase materials is reported herein among 11 samples prepared. The hardness of HENs and HECNs increased by an average of 22% and 39%, respectively, over the rule-of-mixtures average of their monocarbide and mononitride precursors. Similarly, elastic modulus values increased by an average of 17% in nitrides and 31% in carbonitrides over their rule-of-mixtures values. The enhancement in mechanical properties is tied to an increase in the configurational entropy and a decrease in the valence electron concentration, providing parameters for tuning mechanical properties of high-entropy ceramics.

Fully dense HfC and TaC-based composites containing 15 vol% TaSi2 or MoSi2 were produced by hot pressing at 1750–1900 °C. TaSi2 enhanced the sinterability of the composites and nearly fully dense materials were obtained at lower temperatures than in the case of MoSi2-containing ones. The TaC-based composites performed better than HfC composites at room temperature, showing values of mechanical strength up to 900 MPa and a fracture toughness of 4.7 MPa·m1/2. However, preliminary oxidation tests carried out in air at 1600 °C revealed that HfC-based composites have a superior high temperature stability compared to TaC-based materials.

In this paper pulsed electric current sintering (PECS) is applied for submicron-sized copper (sm-Cu) based composite-powders aiming to produce MMC’s with higher strength and better temperature stability than reference sm-Cu. Incorporation of cuprite (Cu2O), alumina (Al2O3), titaniumdiboride (TiB2) and nano- and submicronsized diamonds (ND’s and SMD’s) improved noticeably the room temperature mechanical properties and the high-temperature stability of copper the effects becoming more noticeable with smaller dispersion size and higher amount of reinforcement. The hardness increment was at highest, when using ND’s or Al2O3. E.g., the microhardness for the reference sm-Cu sample and Cu with 3 vol.% ND’s, 6 vol.% ND’s and 2.5 vol.% Al2O3 were 1.02, 1.43, 1.77 and 1.58 GPa, respectively. Similar trend was noted also in the case of thermal stability and CTE. The study shows that Cu-ND, Cu-SMD and Cu-Cu2O are suitable for use at moderate temperatures around 623 - 673 K, whereas Cu-Al2O3 and Cu-TiB2 are suitable above 1023 K. In conclusion, PECS is suitable method to produce high quality Cu-composites having superior thermal and mechanical properties compared to those of sm-Cu.
