Energy Technology Division, Argonne National Laboratory, 60439-4838, Argonne, Illinois aut Degradation of structural ceramics by erosion [Elektronische Daten] [J. Routbort] Materials wastage by solid-particle erosion can be severe and limit lifetimes. This paper will review the theoretical description of solid-particle erosion in brittle materials, which is well-developed for monolithic ceramics. The models can usually account for effects from the principal projectile properties: size, impact velocity, and impact angle. Materials parameters such as fracture toughness and hardness can be included. Steady-state erosion measurements on a wide variety of ceramics, ranging from Si single crystals to SiC-whisker-reinforced A12O3 are reviewed and compared to the models. It is believed thatR-curve behavior and/or particle fragmentation is responsible for discrepancies between the theory and experimental results for composite ceramics. Additionally, the theories make no attempt to describe threshold or incubation effects.
