Interfacial Shear Stress with Pull-out Test at Zeolite Ceramic Matrix and SS316 Single Fiber

Resumo

 Natural zeolite ceramic is a material that can be used as bioceramics but it is fragile to crack. The weakness of ceramics can be overcome by making ceramic metals. The use of SS316 (stainless steel 316) fiber to strengthen the zeolite ceramic had been done in order to determine the interfacial relationship by using a fiber pull-out test. The content of SS316 fiber in the zeolite ceramic matrix, before and after the sintering, had been examined by using atomic absorption spectrum tests. The content of the elements in SS316 fiber, zeolite ceramic matrix and the interface layer was became clear by using EDX and XRD test. The results showed that the higher the sintering temperature, the higher the interfacial shear stress on pull-out test as well. However, at a temperature of 900ºC, the interfacial shear stress on pull-out test became low because of the Fe, FeNi, and CrFe was arisen in a thin layer of the interface. The optimum of the temperature sintering for making ceramic zeolite matrix and SS16 fibers was 850ï‚°C because of the highest interfacial shear stress.
