Abstract

Previous studies on the creep behavior of ceramic materials were primarily conducted under static loads. However, the majority of applications for ceramic materials are subject to dynamic loads, and there is a paucity of research conducted in this area. In this work, we report for the first time the creep behavior of Al2O3 whisker-reinforced ZrO2 composites under dynamic pressure. The results showed that the sample crept under dynamic pressure produced higher creep rate and lower activation energy compared to static pressure. By analyzing the creep data and microstructures, we showed that the dynamic pressure can enhance dislocation motion and transform the creep mechanism from diffusion-controlled grain-boundary sliding to dislocation-controlled grain-boundary sliding. This work provides a foundation for subsequent detailed studies of the creep behavior of ceramic materials under dynamic pressure.
