A nano-laminated Y3Si2C2 ceramic material was successfully synthesized through in situ reaction between YH2 and SiC using spark plasma sintering technology. The material exhibited unique fracture behavior with nano-laminated features and showed high hardness and elastic modulus when sintered at 1500 degrees C.
A nano-laminated Y3Si2C2 ceramic material was successfully synthesized via an in situ reaction between YH2 and SiC using spark plasma sintering technology. A MAX phase-like ternary layered structure of Y3Si2C2 was observed at the atomic-scale by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The lattice parameters calculated from both X-ray diffraction and selected area electron diffraction patterns are in good agreement with the reported theoretical results. The nano-laminated fracture of kink boundaries, delamination, and slipping were observed at the tip of the Vickers indents. The elastic modulus and Vickers hardness of Y3Si2C2 ceramics (with 5.5 wt% Y2O3) sintered at 1500 degrees C were 156 and 6.4 GPa, respectively. The corresponding values of thermal and electrical conductivity were 13.7 W center dot m(-1)center dot K-1 and 6.3x10(5) S center dot m(-1), respectively.
