Abstract
C/C composite was successfully brazed with TiZrHfTa/Ni composite interlayers at lower temperature far below the melting point of TiZrHfTa refractory high entropy alloy. The influence of brazing parameters on the joint morphology, indentation fraction toughness of the reaction layer, shear strength at room temperature and at 1000 °C, and fracture behavior was investigated. The results show that all of the C/C composite joints contained two main phases: an equimolar (Ti-Zr-Hf-Ta)C hard phase and a near-pure Ni binder phase. The maximum indentation fracture toughness of the obtained joint reaction layer material was 15.52 ± 0.64 MPa·m1/2. This was proved to be beneficial to improve the strength and toughness of the joint. Meanwhile, the maximum shear strengths of C/C-TiZrHfTa/Ni-C/C joint at room temperature and at 1000 °C reached 33.24 ± 1.85 MPa and 21.70 ± 2.12 MPa, respectively. Abundant slip lines, in-situ dimples, and tearing ridges resulting from Ni plastic deformation suggest a predominantly ductile fracture mode in the joint. This work introduces an innovative method, which can not only ensure the service of C/C composite in high temperature environment, but also effectively reduce the joining temperature.
