摘要: 碳/碳复合材料以其优异的性能广泛应用于航空航天、武器装备等领域,但碳纤维预制体成本高等因素限制了碳/碳复合材料的发展。碳泡沫具有三维网状结构,其韧带表现出与碳纤维相似的性质,可以作为增强相制备新型碳/碳复合材料。本文以酚醛树脂作为碳源,NaCl作为造孔剂,制备出不同碳纤维体积含量(0vol%、1vol%、3vol%、5vol%、7vol%)的碳泡沫作为碳/碳复合材料预制体,利用热梯度化学气相渗积(TG-CVI)快速致密化技术制备碳/碳复合材料,考察了碳纤维含量对碳纤维/碳泡沫预制体及其致密化后密度、微观结构和力学性能的影响。结果表明,随着碳纤维含量的增加,碳纤维/碳泡沫预制体中的微裂纹数量显增加,密度由0.51 g/cm3逐渐降低至0.31 g/cm3,抗压强度由51.30 MPa下降至1.30 MPa,抗弯强度由42.53 MPa下降至6.32 MPa。致密化之后碳/碳复合材料抗压强度与抗弯强度显著提升,最高分别为183.67 MPa和123.46 MPa,其密度为1.09 g/cm3,因此具有高比强度。致密化后复合材料的热导率从0.298 W/(m·K)(致密化前)增大到2.484 W/(m·K),提升了734%,这是由于致密化后碳纤维与热解碳形成了三维导热网络。Abstract: Carbon/carbon composites has been widely used in aerospace, weaponry and other fields with their excellent properties. However, the development of carbon/carbon composites has been limited by the high cost of carbon fiber preforms. Carbon foam has a three-dimensional network structure, and its ligaments show similar properties to carbon fibers, which can be used as the reinforcing phase to prepare carbon/carbon composites. In this paper, carbon foams with different carbon fiber volume contents (0vol%, 1vol%, 3vol%, 5vol%, 7vol%) were prepared as carbon/carbon composites preforms by using phenolic resin as the carbon source and NaCl as the pore-forming agent, and the carbon/carbon composites were prepared by using the rapid densification technique of thermal gradient chemical vapour infiltration (TG-CVI), which investigated the effects of carbon fiber content on the carbon fiber/carbon foam preform and its density, microstructure and mechanical properties after densification. The effects of carbon fiber content on the density, microstructure and mechanical properties of the carbon fiber/carbon foam preform and its densification were investigated. The results showed that with the increase of carbon fiber content, the number of microcracks in the carbon fiber/carbon foam precast body increased significantly, the density gradually decreased from 0.51 g/cm3 to 0.31 g/cm3, and the compressive strength decreased from 51.30 MPa to 1.30 MPa, flexural strength decreased from 42.53 MPa to 6.32 MPa. The compressive and flexural strengths of the carbon/carbon composites were significantly increased after densification, up to 183.67 MPa and 123.46 MPa, respectively, while the density was 1.09 g/cm3, resulting in high specific strength. The thermal conductivity of the composites increased from 0.298 W/(m·K) (before densification) to 2.484 W/(m·K), an increase of 734%, which was attributed to the formation of a three-dimensional thermal conductivity network between the carbon fibers and pyrolytic carbon after densification.
