Pressure bonding molybdenum alloy (TZM) to reaction-bonded silicon nitride
Topping cycles could boost the energy efficiencies of a variety of systems by using what is now waste heat. One such topping cycle uses a ceramic helical expander and would require that a reaction-bonded silicon nitride (RBSN) rotor be bonded to a shaft of TZM (Mo-0.5 wt % Ti-0.08 wt % Zr). Coupon studies show that TZM can be bonded to RBSN at 1300/sup 0/C and 69 MPa if there is an interlayer of MoSi/sub 2/. A layer of finely ground (10 ..mu..m) MoSi/sub 2/ facilitates bond formation and provides a thicker bond interface. The hardness and grain structure of the TZM and RBSN were not affected by the temperature and pressure required to bond the coupons.
