Abstract
A process for deposition a carbon coating on a fibre which comprises heating the fibre and passing the heated fibre through a deposition chamber containing a gas which on contact with the hot fibre deposits a carbon coating; characterised in that the gas is a haloalkyne, eg bromopropyne, chloropropyne. The fibre may be a ceramic fibre, eg silicon carbide. The filament may be heated to 800-1300 DEG C. The deposition chamber is preferably a vertical tube with a gas inlet at the lower end and a gas outlet at the upper end. Other reactive gases such as chloroform or butadiene may also be present. The fibre may consist of carbon, tungsten, boron or silicon carbide.
Description
A PROCESS FOR DEPOSITING A COATING ON A FIBRE
This invention relates to a process for depositing a coating on a fibre.
Most composite components are made from either woven fabrics or parallel arrays of unidirectional fibres. The ceramic fibre must, however, be provided with a protective coating to eliminate strength-reducing fibre-matrix chemical reactions if it is to be used successfully to reinforce composites such as metal matrix composites. In addition, a coating makes it easier to handle fibres by protecting against abrasion damage.
A well known technique for depositing carbon coatings on fibres utilises chemical vapour deposition (CVD). In a typical process, a fibre is passed continuously through a deposition chamber containing gases which, on contact with the hot fibre, deposit the desired coating. The fibre may be heated resistively by passage of an electric current.
We have now found a process which is particularly useful for the deposition of a carbon coating on a fibre.
Accordingly, the present invention provides a process for depositing a carbon coating on a fibre which comprises heating the fibre and passing the heated fibre through a deposition chamber containing a gas which on contact with the hot fibre deposits a carbon coating; characterised in that the gas is a haloalkyne.
The process provides a method whereby a fibre can be coated using a single precursor. The single precursor provides the advantage of reduced processing complexity, thus making the process more controllable. This makes it easier to reproduce the required coatings. The present invention also deposits carbon at as high a rate as many multi-precursor combinations.
The haloalkyne is suitably a liquid at room temperature and may suitably be selected from any C2-C4 alkyne. The halo groups may suitably be selected from fluorine, bromine and chlorine.
Preferably the haloalkyne is a bromoalkyne or a chloroalkyne, for example bromopropyne or, especially, chloropropyne.
The haloalkyne may suitably be utilised either in the pure form or in the commercially available form.
Suitably, the deposition chamber contains an inert carrier gas. The gas may suitably be neon or argon. Hydrogen may also be present if desired or the reaction may be carried out in the absence of hydrogen.
Where the haloalkyne is a liquid, the inert gas is suitably passed through the liquid. The liquid haloalkyne may suitably be contained within a reservoir at a constant temperature eg greater than room temperature but less than the boiling point of the liquid. Preferably, the liquid haloalkyne is maintained at a temperature of from 30-40 C.
Preferably the gases in the deposition chamber consist of the inert carrier gas and the haloalkyne. Also suitable is the presence of a second reactive gas such as chloroform and/or other unsaturated carbon compounds such as alkenes, eg butadiene.
In order to promote efficient deposition, the fibre is suitably heated in the range of from 800 to 1300 C, preferably 900 to 1100 C. Most conveniently, the fibre is heated by passage of an electric current supplied via two liquid metal electrodes through which the fibre passes. It should of course be understood that the current may be varied for different temperatures. The electrodes may contain pure mercury, or liquid metal mixtures selected from mercury/indium, mercury/cadmium or gallium/indium.
The deposition tube is preferably a vertical tube. The tube may suitably have parallel walls or suitably tapering walls.
Preferably, the tube is of constant width throughout its length.
It has been found that especially good results have been obtained when the gas inlet is at the lower end of the tube and the outlet at the upper end. If the liquid is contained within a liquid reservoir, suitably the liquid reservoir is situated at the lower end of the tube.
The process provides a carbon coated filament wherein the microstructure of the coating comprises laminar layers of carbon.
By laminar layers, it is understood that the layers are parallel to the surface of the fibre.
The process according to the present invention may be used for depositing a carbon coating on any desired fibre. The fibre may, for example, be tungsten or carbon requiring a further carbon layer. Preferably the fibre is a ceramic fibre, for example boron or especially silicon carbide. Such fibres are well known and their manufacture is described in many publications, for example US 4127659 and US 3622369.
The process of the invention will now be illustrated with reference to the accompanying drawing wherein Figure 1 shows an apparatus which may be used to carry out the invention. A silicon carbide fibre (1) is fed from a supply (2) via a tube (3) to a store (4). The fibre passes through mercury electrodes (5 and 6) at each end of the tube (3).
The electrodes (5 and 6) form part of an electric circuit (not shown) which supplies an electric heating circuit to the filament, raising it to a temperature of from 900 to 1100 C. Argon is passed into the liquid 3-chloropropyne, ex Analar contained within a reservoir (7).
The argon (50 - 500 standard cubic centimetres per minute (sccm)) and vapour phase haloalkyne (10 - 100 sccm) are fed into the tube (3) via inlet (8) and spent gases removed via outlet (9). The fibre entering the store (4) has a high quality carbon coating.
