The results of studying the process of obtaining complex-profile elements of the substrate of mirrors of optical telescopes from reaction-sintered silicon carbide ceramics are presented. It is shown that the strength of silicon carbide ceramics depends on the dispersion of the silicon carbide powder and on the temperature of reaction sintering. An increase in the sintering temperature from 1500 to 1650 °C leads to an increase in strength by 60 MPa, and to 1800 °C – to a decrease in strength by 40 MPa. An increase in strength is explained by a decrease in free silicon and an increase in the content of secondary silicon carbide, a decrease in strength is explained by an increase in the size of carbide grains. The study of the influence of the modes of soldering of hexagonal elements to obtain a complex-profile element of the substrate of the mirror of an optical telescope on the strength of the soldered seam showed that the introduction of silicon carbide powder 7 μm in size and amorphous boron in an amount of 6 % into the solder composition based on silicon carbide has a positive effect on the strength of the soldered seam. Tests of the brazed specimens at three-point bending showed that fracture occurs along the body of the specimens being brazed, and not the brazed seam. The structure of the brazed joint depends on the composition of the braze alloy and the gap between the samples to be brazed.
Представлены результаты оценки триботехнических и акустических характеристик металлокерамических фрикционных композиционных материалов на основе меди в зависимости от структуры композита и содержания в составе металлических (олово, железо) и углеродных (кокс, графит) добавок. Установлено, что изменения исследуемых характеристик наиболее существенно выражены в условиях сухого трения, а введение целевых добавок приводит к снижению фрикционных составляющих шума до 56 дБ. В режиме граничного трения наибольший эффект от введения добавок на акустические характеристики не превышает 11 дБ относительно материала без добавок. Для композита на основе 12 % оловянистой бронзы показано, что увеличение содержания графита с 10 до 30 об. % приводит к снижению шума на 5 дБ.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
