Abstract

Effect of the grain boundary phases in Si$_3$N$_4$ ceramics on the fracture tonghness has been investigated. The Si$_3$N$_4$-Y$_2$O$_3$-SiO$_2$, (YS) and Si$_3$N$_4$-Y$_2$O$_3$-Al$_2$O$_3$(YA) systems were Can/HIP treated at 1750$^{\circ}C$ and then heat-treated at 1800∼2000$^{\circ}C$. The fracture toughness of the YA system, the grain boundary phase was only glass phase after heat-treatement, was increased. That of the YS system, however, the grain boundary phase was changed from crystalline and glass to glass phase after the heat -treatement above 1900$^{\circ}C$, was abruptly decreased. The reason of the sudden drop of the fracture toughness of the YS system was believed that the change of the grain boundary phases from crystalline and glass to glass phase effected un the fracture behavior.

질화규소 요업체에서 입계상의 변화가 파괴인성에 미치는 영향에 대해 살펴보았다 실험에는 Si$_3$N$_4$-Y$_2$O$_3$-SiO$_2$(YS)계와 Si$_3$N$_4$-Y$_2$O$_3$-A1$_2$O$_3$(YA) 계를 사용하였으며, 175$0^{\circ}C$에서 Can/HIP 처리한 후 1800~200$0^{\circ}C$ 온도구간에서 열처리시키면서 입계상의 변화에 따른 파괴인성의 변화를 조사하였다. 열처리 온도구간에서 입계상이 비정질상만으로 존재하였던 YA계의 경우는 열처리 온도가 증가되어 입성장됨에 따라 파괴인성 값이 증가되었으나, 190$0^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 열처리될 때 입계상이 결정상에서 비정질상으로 변화하였던 YS계의 경우는 오히려 파괴인성 값이 급격히 감소되었다. YS계에서 파괴인성의 급격한 저하는 열처리 온도 증가에 따라 입계상이 결정상과 비정질상의 공존 상태에서 비정질상만의 상태로 전이하며 파괴거동에 영향을 미쳤기 때문이라고 생각된다.
