Abstract
The studies carried out concern the development of structural radiotransparent ceramic materials based on the four-component system BaO–SrO–Al2O3–SiO2. Due to the widespread use of radar equipment at modern aviation facilities, the development of radiotransparent fairings for them is a rather important and urgent task.The purpose of the fairings is to protect the antenna devices of radar stations from environmental influences during flight. Based on this, the fairings must meet a complex set of requirements for aerodynamic, thermal, radio engineering and mechanical properties. These requirements at supersonic flight speeds of modern objects increase significantly, since the improvement of the aerodynamic shape, the increase in the mechanical strength and thermal stability of the fairings contradicts the interests of radio engineering, leading to a significant deterioration in their radiotransparency and to distortions of antenna directional patterns. The consequence is a decrease in the range of radar stations and serious deterioration in their accuracy characteristics.The aim of the research was to obtain, on the basis of the BaO–SrO–Al2O3–SiO2 system, crystalline phases of slavsonit and celsian at low temperatures and times of synthesis, by introducing sintering intensifiers with fluxing and modifying action.The influence of a number of additives on the intensification of the low-temperature synthesis of slavsonit and celsian is investigated. The positive effect of the eutectic additive of the SnO2–Li2O system on the preparation of a densely sintered ceramic material based on solid solutions of slavsonit and monoclinic celsian is shown. It has been established that, according to its dielectric properties, the obtained ceramic material can be classified as structural radio-transparent materials.
