Sea‐Salt Corrosion and Strength of a Sintered α‐Silicon Carbide

Abstract: A commercially available, sintered silicon carbide was exposed to a temperature of 982°C for up to 50 h in a burner rig pressurized to 500 kPa. Synthetic sea salt added to the flame (5 ppm) resulted in the deposition of sodium sulfate and formation of a sodium magnesium silicate corrosion product. A 16% reduction in room‐temperature strength occurred after 5 h of exposure; this reduction was due to the formation of surface pits. Exposure for longer times resulted in continued strength reduction, up to 56% at 2… Show more

“…Silicon carbide corrosion by salts that decompose to a reactive oxide in an oxidising environment results in a reduction in strength, caused by surface pitting, grain boundary etching and deposition of alkali silicates . SiC is corroded by molten Na 2 CO 3 in three stages: weight loss because of dissolution of any surface SiO 2 scale, oxidation of SiC to SiO 2 and formation of a protective oxide barrier that protects the SiC from further attack.…”

“…Effects of exposure to the salt-fog on CMCs' performance have been also investigated [20][21][22][23][24]. The contribution of fiber strength loss on the degradation of the tensile behavior of Nextel TM 720/aluminosilicate composites after exposure to salt-fog (ASTM B117) was investigated in [22].…”
