Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage is that the preparation process is more complicated, and the equipment requirements are higher, and the continuous toughening metal can only use metals with lower melting points, so it cannot be used under high temperature conditions
[0007] In addition, the above two toughening methods do not enhance the neutron-absorbing performance of boron carbide, but will reduce its performance

Abstract

The invention relates to a short carbon fiber-reinforced boron carbide composite material and a preparation method thereof. The composite material is prepared from the following components in percentage by volume: 80-99 vt.% of boron carbide and 1-20 vt.% of short carbon fibers. The preparation method comprises the following steps: weighing boron carbide powder and short carbon fibers according toa designed component ratio of the short boron carbide composite material, adding the boron carbide powder and the short carbon fibers into a deionized water solution containing polyethylene glycol, conducting uniform mixing, and carrying out drying treatment to obtain mixed powder; and then filling a graphite mold with the mixed powder, and carrying out spark plasma sintering to obtain the shortcarbon fiber-reinforced boron carbide composite material. The preparation method is simple in process; a prepared sample is high in compactness; toughness is improved to a certain extent on the basisof keeping certain strength; and in addition, the neutron absorption performance of the composite material can be better improved, and the composite material can be better used in a nuclear reactor shielding layer.
