“…Table 1 summarizes the cracks healing property of typical boron‐containing self‐healing composites under different test condition. It can be clearly seen that the cracks in the interior of composites are relatively easy to be healed whether in air or wet environment compared to cracks in the surface 5,7,11,14,23–26,28,31 .

“…When the temperature was above 900°C, the water vapor leaded to significant mass loss of B 2 O 3 . Similarly, Liu et al 9,11 evaluated the crack sealing function of multi-layer SiC/Si-B-C/SiC coatings at different temperature under wet oxygen atmosphere. The increasing water partial pressure could accelerate the volatilization of borosilicate glass and weaken the crack sealing function of glass when the oxidation temperature was above 1000°C.…”
Aluminum oxide has been introduced into SiC f /(SiC + B 4 C) composites to improve the crack self-healing property in O 2 /H 2 O atmosphere. The observation of the surface and interior morphologies of the oxidized composites reveal that Al 2 O 3 can lead to rapid self-healing of cracks, which will effectively block the oxidation of interior interphase and fiber. Further investigation reveals that Al 2 O 3 plays an important role in impeding the crystallization of SiO 2 and limiting the volatilization of B 2 O 3. It is beneficial to form self-healing fluid glass phase and improve glass phase stability. Under these circumstances, the pre-crack can be healed more effectively, which is advantageous for composites to remain high strength retention rate.

“…Silicon carbide (SiC) is known for its outstanding hardness, good wear resistance, and hightemperature stability, indicating that SiC can withstand high temperature during the MAO process and be a good supporter on MAO surfaces. While it is rarely reported to using SiC as an additive to the MAO treatment though it has been used for coating in other techniques [18][19][20][21].…”
In the present work, particles of SiC were applied to the micro-arc oxidation (MAO) treatment of Ti6Al4V, characterization of MAO coatings with different SiC particle concentration were evaluated. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) results show that the structure and morphology of MAO ceramic coatings could change with different amounts of SiC in the electrolyte. Both of the number and size of the pores on the ceramic coating surface were decreased, while the layer thickness increased with the increase in SiC particles in the electrolyte. A dense doublelayer structure coating composed of a Ti-based layer and a SiC-based layer with a thickness of about 40 μm was prepared. It was shown that the addition of SiC particles participated in the process of microarc oxidation and changed the microstructure of MAO coating.
“…13,14 Besides, vacuum infiltration of alumina slurry was confirmed to be an efficient approach to produce SiC RPCs with multilayered struts, the hollow skeleton was filled up and the skeleton surface was coated by infiltration slurry during vacuum infiltration process. 15,16 However, like composite materials containing coating, 17 the surface cracks easily formed on the outer layer of SiC RPCs due to the large thermal expansion mismatch between outer layer and SiC skeleton, thus weakening the mechanical properties of SiC RPCs. 18,19 It was reported that the formation of surface cracks in laminated material was attributed to the existence of residual tensile stress in outer layer.…”
Silicon carbide reticulated porous ceramics (SiC RPCs) with multi-layered struts were fabricated by polymer replica technique with SiC slurry, followed by infiltrating alumina slurries containing andalusite under vacuum condition. The effects of andalusite addition on the microstructure and mechanical properties of SiC RPCs were investigated, also the residual stress within the multi-layered strut was predicted. Theoretical calculations showed that the residual tensile stress generated in the outer layer of SiC RPCs because of its larger thermal expansion coefficient of infiltration slurry than that of SiC slurry at elevated temperature. Furthermore, the addition of andalusite reduced the thermal expansion coefficient and Young's modulus of infiltration slurries, thereby significantly reducing the residual stress of the outer layer in multi-layered struts. The reduced residual tensile stress within the outer layer was beneficial to eliminate surface cracks on the struts, thus improving the mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance of SiC RPCs.
