ZrB2 can be subsequently formed

What is Zirconium diboride?
ZrB2 composition with four wt% B4C additive was used for pressureless sintering studies. These powders were attrition-milled in a polymer-lined jar using cobalt-bonded tungsten carbide (WC) media at 600 rpm for two h in acetone or MEK. After milling, the powder was retrieved via rotary evaporation. The powder was then crushed using a diamonite mortar and pestle and passed through a sieve stack: 250 µm / 60 mesh; 150 µm / 100 mesh; 106 µm / 140 mesh; and 90 µm / 170 mesh. The collected powder was uniaxially pressed into pellets for a sintering study. Two samples of five pellets were made using a laboratory benchtop press. One set with and the other without PVA binder. Due to incompatibility between PVA and MEK, batches that included binders were milled in acetone. After the doped ZrB2 powder was retrieved, the PVA binder was introduced as a ten wt% solution, and the mixture was milled in an HDPE wide-mouth bottle with WC media for two h to homogenize. The solvent was removed by boiling the slurry under a high (700-1200) rpm stir until dry. For each pellet, 1.5 g of powder was loaded into a 12.7 mm die and pressed for 60 s at 70.3 MPa; between compaction, the die was cleaned with acetone and lubricated with stearic acid.
 

ZrB2 can be subsequently formed
Zirconium diboride (ZrB2) is classified as an ultrahigh temperature ceramic (UHTC), all melting temperatures over 3000oC. This material class performs well in harsh environments, often exceeding the capabilities of traditional engineering materials. ZrB2 has a high melting temperature (3245oC), high Young's modulus (526 GPa), high hardness (23 GPa), and low theoretical density (6.09 g/cm3 ). Applying additive manufacturing for UHTCs may provide a cost-effective method for fabricating complex components for next-generation gas turbines, rocket engines, and hypersonic vehicles. This work describes how zirconium diboride (ZrB2) parts may be fabricated using the Ceramic On-Demand Extrusion (CODE) process. An oxide-carbide-nitride system consisting of ceramic powders and pre-ceramic organics, designed to yield ZrB2 after reaction sintering, has been developed to produce an aqueous-based extrudate for subsequent processing in the CODE system. Pressureless sintered test specimens containing one wt% PVA binder achieve high relative density 99%. The viscoelastic response of the extrudate was characterized via spindle rheometry with a small sample adapter. Batches with one wt% PVA and 0.5 wt% Methocel show strong shear thinning characteristics under shear rates of 1-28 s-1. XRD and SEM were utilized for microstructural analysis to determine phase development and microstructural morphology.

The structural and thermal properties of ZrB2
Reaction sintering is a method in which chemical reaction and densification occur in a single sintering cycle. Normally a method reserved for producing high-purity powders, several reaction paths have been introduced with varying thermodynamic requirements. However, none have been applied to in situ fabrication using additive manufacturing (AM). With the application of colloidal processing techniques, an extrudate may easily be designed to have the desired rheological properties for deposition, the chemistry for reaction sintering, and particle size to promote specific phase development. These parameters can be further controlled to promote high relative density without pressure-assisted sintering, such that complex, near-net-shape components may be fabricated. Eliminating the machining costs associated with ceramic materials would justify in situ fabrication. The structural and thermal properties of ZrB2 are valuable to many industries that would favor a method of production that provides a high degree of compositional control with low machining costs. Ceramic On-Demand Extrusion (CODE) is an extrusion-based AM process that can successfully fabricate mesoscale artifacts. Using high solids loading (>50 vol%), aqueous ceramic extrudate deposition is done at room temperature to build a 3D geometry layer-wise. After deposition, each layer is partially solidified by uniform infrared radiation applied perpendicular to the top face. Concurrently, the built portion is surrounded, flush with the topmost layer, by a low molecular weight oil to promote one-dimensional drying. Dynamic drying eliminates a water content gradient in the deposited part, imparts greater stability during the build, and enables the production of fracture and warpage-free ceramic parts.
