Microstructures and enhanced flexural properties of single-crystalline HfC nanowires in-situ modified carbon/carbon composites by electrophoresis-thermal evaporation using CNTs as the template

Abstract
Abstract To improve the mechanical properties of carbon/carbon (C/C) composites, in-situ synthetized single-crystalline hafnium carbide nanowires (HfCnws) were introduced into the carbon fiber preforms by electrophoresis-thermal evaporation method. The Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were utilized as the carbon source and templates for forming HfCnws. The microstructure, chemical composition and mechanical properties of the HfCnws modified carbon/carbon (HfCnws-C/C) composites were characterized. Results reveal that HfC is produced preferentially in the inner nodular parts and end parts of MWCNTs. The raising heat-treatment temperature would influence the diffusion rate of Hf atoms and then the number of nucleation sites, which further changed the aspect ratio and morphology of HfCnws. The HfCnws have refined the grain size of pyrolytic carbon (PyC), and significantly improve the flexural strength of C/C composites by 79.3%.
