Abstract

AbstractComposites consisting of Ni3Al modified with Zr, Fe, and B (IC-50) reinforced with continuous sapphire single crystal fibers have been prepared by vacuum hot pressing foil/fiber multilayers. Previous research detected formation of Zr-rich precipitates and sulfur segregation at fiber/matrix interfaces in these materials subsequent to fabrication. In this work, fiber bonding to the Ni3Al matrix has been characterized using fiber push-out tests. Segregation and precipitation at fiber/matrix interfaces has been examined using scanning Auger electron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. For comparison, composites have also been prepared from Ni, Ni-Al, and Ni-Al-Zr solid solution matrices, to evaluate the effects of matrix strength and reactivity on processing and fiber/matrix reactions.
