EFFECT OF NdB₆ ADDITION ON DENSIFICATION AND PROPERTIES OF ZrB₂

Abstract: This paper reports on the effect of NdB 6 addition on densification and properties of ZrB 2. NdB 6 powder (2.5, 5 and 10 wt. %) was added to ZrB 2 powder and consolidated by hot pressing. It was found that NdB 6 addition assisted in densification of ZrB 2 at lower hot pressing temperature of 1750°C. Formation of solid solution was observed at the interface of ZrB 2 and NdB 6 phases. Hardness was found to be slightly increased by 2.5 wt. % NdB 6 addition but decreased by 5 and 10 % NdB 6 addition. Fracture toug… Show more

“…In addition, nitrides such as AlN and ZrN and rare earth oxides/borides including La 2 O 3 , LaB 6 , NdB 6 and EuB 6 have also been explored as sintering additives for the borides to enhance both sinterability and the subsequent properties [22,53,71,82,83]. Removal of the B 2 O 3 surface oxide layer by the nitrides also prevents grain growth, which in turn aids densification.…”

“…Similarly, the addition of rare earth in the form of its borides (NdB 6 , LaB 6 , EuB 6 ) to ZrB 2 are also reported to improve the oxidation resistance compared to monolithic ZrB 2 [48,82]. LaB 6 was also identified as a beneficial additive to ZrB 2 –SiC based on its ability to act as a modifier for the ZrO 2 , which stabilised the formation of the tetragonal phase [48,387].…”

“…Magnesia-calcium bricks have been widely used as lining materials in ferrous metallurgy to produce clean steel such as in refining furnaces [6] because of their excellent performance [7]. However, there are amounts of spent magnesia-calcium bricks not being reused effectively [8] because impurity elements such as Si, Fe, and Al from molten steel and slag remain in spent magnesia-calcium bricks, and these impurities can damage the usability of regenerated products [9][10][11]. These spent magnesia-calcium bricks have not been reused, as they not only occupy large amounts of land and cause environmental harm but also cause a waste of resources such as magnesia and calcium oxide in the spent bricks.…”

“…Transition metal carbides are known for their high melting points, excellent high-temperature corrosion resistance, and weak damage sensitivity under irradiation. As a result, these carbides demonstrate applications in extreme environments of thermal protection systems, field emitters, coating of nuclear particle fuels [1][2][3]. Among these carbides, ZrC and HfC have been greatly studied for their high melting points and excellent corrosion resistance.…”
