Five carbide powders, TiC, CrC, ZrC, NbC and SiC, were selected as raw materials and mixed by dry or wet milling. Then (TiCrZrNb)C-SiC multiphase ceramics were successfully prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) at 1900 °C, using D-HECs-1900 (dry milling method) and W-HECs-1900 (wet milling method), respectively. In this study, the effects of the ball milling method on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the multiphase high-entropy ceramics were systematically investigated. Compared to D-HECs-1900, W-HECs-1900 has a more uniform elemental distribution and smaller grain size, with an average grain size of 1.8 μm, a higher Vickers hardness HV = 2178.41 kg/mm and a higher fracture toughness of K = 4.42 MPa·m. W-HECs-1900 also shows better wear resistance with a wear rate 1.01 × 10 mm·N·m. The oxide friction layer formed during friction is beneficial for reducing frictional wear, making W-HECs-1900 a potential wear-resistant material.
选择了五种碳化物粉末,即碳化钛(TiC)、碳化铬(CrC)、碳化锆(ZrC)、碳化铌(NbC)和碳化硅(SiC)作为原料,并通过干磨或湿磨进行混合。然后,分别使用D - HECs - 1900(干磨法)和W - HECs - 1900(湿磨法),在1900℃下通过放电等离子烧结(SPS)成功制备了(TiCrZrNb)C - SiC多相陶瓷。在本研究中,系统地研究了球磨方法对多相高熵陶瓷微观结构和力学性能的影响。与D - HECs - 1900相比,W - HECs - 1900具有更均匀的元素分布和更小的晶粒尺寸,平均晶粒尺寸为1.8μm,维氏硬度更高,HV = 2178.41 kg/mm,断裂韧性更高,K = 4.42 MPa·m。W - HECs - 1900还表现出更好的耐磨性,磨损率为1.01×10⁻⁶mm³·N⁻¹·m⁻¹。摩擦过程中形成的氧化摩擦层有利于减少摩擦磨损,使W - HECs - 1900成为一种潜在的耐磨材料。
