Abstract
Materials with multiple superior properties are well suited to meet the demands of rapidly evolving technology. This study delved into the multifaceted impact of Al2O3 content on the structure-property relationships within novel (1-x)La2O3-Al2O3-SiO2 + xAl2O3 glass/ceramic composites. La2O3-Al2O3-SiO2 (LAS) glass as a liquid-phase filler facilitated the densification of the composites during sintering. Increasing Al2O3 content promoted structural ordering, elevating thermal conductivity to 11.6 W/(m•K). Notably, the composite labelled 50A demonstrated exceptional mechanical performance, including the highest flexural strength of 434.8 MPa, fracture toughness of 4.7 MPa•m1/2, and Vickers hardness of 10.6 GPa. The combination of grain refinement, microstructural evolution, and crystallinity results in a synergistic increase in flexural strength and fracture toughness of composites. These combined attributes position the optimized composite as a promising substrate for high-performance electronic packaging applications requiring concurrent mechanical robustness and thermal management capabilities.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the American Ceramic Society contains records of original research that provide insight into or describe the science of ceramic and glass materials and composites based on ceramics and glasses. These papers include reports on discovery, characterization, and analysis of new inorganic, non-metallic materials; synthesis methods; phase relationships; processing approaches; microstructure-property relationships; and functionalities. Of great interest are works that support understanding founded on fundamental principles using experimental, theoretical, or computational methods or combinations of those approaches. All the published papers must be of enduring value and relevant to the science of ceramics and glasses or composites based on those materials.
Papers on fundamental ceramic and glass science are welcome including those in the following areas:
Enabling materials for grand challenges[...]
Materials design, selection, synthesis and processing methods[...]
Characterization of compositions, structures, defects, and properties along with new methods [...]
Mechanisms, Theory, Modeling, and Simulation[...]
JACerS accepts submissions of full-length Articles reporting original research, in-depth Feature Articles, Reviews of the state-of-the-art with compelling analysis, and Rapid Communications which are short papers with sufficient novelty or impact to justify swift publication.
