Abstract
Fibrous monolithic Si 3 N 4 /BN (≈85 vol.% Si 3 N 4 /15 vol.% BN) and monolithic Si 3 N 4 ceramics were compressed at a nearly constant strain rate (ε) at 1200-1400 ⁰C in N 2 . The ε range was ≈1x10 -6 to 5x10 -6 s -1 ; the stress (σ) range was 37-202 MPa. The Si 3 N 4 and the unidirectional fibrous monoliths that were oriented with the long axis of the Si 3 N 4 cells parallel to the compression direction exhibited plasticity at 1300 and 1400 ⁰C, with ε∝σ. A 0/90⁰ cross-ply Si 3 N 4 /BN laminate also exhibited significant plasticity, but it was weaker than the above-mentioned ceramics. The unidirectional fibrous monoliths that were compressed perpendicular to the cell direction fractured at ≈50 MPa in all tests. A ±45⁰ laminate tested at 1300 ⁰C fractured at a stress of ≈40 MPa. Low fracture stress correlated with shear through BN layers.
