Measurement of thermal diffusivity of diamond by the light-induced thermal lattice method

Abstract

obtaining not only the volume content of the filler but also of the binder and the pores by separating the porosity into open and closed and retaining the completeness of the specimen. Analysis of the curves in Fig. 4 shows that the porosity is reduced in layers with elevated binder content. The arrangement of the interlayers over the material thickness is seen from the curves, the tendency to increase the volume content of binder with the approach to the specimen outer surface is noticeable because of its extrusion during winding due to the contract pressure of the layers. Closed pores predominate as in the first experiment. Therefore, the proposed tomographic method of determining the composition of composites permits computation of the volume content of the original components, the porosity, the volume content of the open and closed pores in each elementary layer of material, and clarification of the regularities of its structure. coefficients of attenuation of the fiber, binder, air of the i-th layer of the dry specimen; i-th water-saturated layer of the specimen; j-th cell of the i-th layer of the specimen under investigation, impregnator; n, quantity of cells in the i-th layer, mfi, ml, m2, weight of the dry and impregnated specimens in air and in water; Ccl, closed porosity; Sf, rms deviation of the linear attenuation coefficients; and ~, volume closed pore content.
