Ultra-High Temperature Testing up to +2,000°C in vacuum and inert gas

Ceramic and ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix composites (CMC and UHTCMC) are high-performance materials: they are extremely resistant to high temperatures up to +3,000 °C. These composite materials are used in safety related applications and must withstand high mechanical and corrosive stresses. ZwickRoell offers the perfect high-temperature testing solution for these requirements. The mechanical load bearing capacity of ceramic fiber composites is tested at ultra-high temperatures up to 2,000 °C. This involves evaluating the suitability of CMCs for specific applications using tensile, compression, flexure, creep fatigue and shear tests. To ensure that CMCs are tested under real operating conditions, these destructive test methods are carried out in vacuum and inert gas conditions in a temperature range from 650 °C up to 2,000 °C. ► Customized high-temperature testing system with vacuum chamber The customized high-temperature testing solution is based on the load frame of our Kappa SS-CF creep testing machine. The height- and width-adapted testing machine provides sufficient space for the vacuum and inert gas chamber. This chamber has graphite heating rods and ensures constant temperature distribution on the specimen up to 2,000 °C. At temperatures up to 1,700 °C, the temperature is measured and controlled with type D thermocouples; a two color pyrometer is used for temperatures above 1,700 °C. ► Strict requirements on strain measurements up to +2,000 °C Extreme application conditions such as ultra-high temperatures and diverse environmental conditions also place high demands on strain measurements. Both optical as well as contacting high-temperature extensometers can be used for vacuum and inert gas environments. The laserXtens is particularly suitable for precise non-contact strain measurement in vacuum conditions without having mechanical effects on the specimen. ► Testing solution ◄ • Patented creep testing machine Kappa 100 SS-CF, Fmax 100 kN with customized size • Vacuum chamber with graphite heaters for temperatures from 650°C up to 2,000°C • Temperature measurement with thermocouples or 2-color pyrometers • Contacting high-temperature extensometers for tensile and compression tests • testXpert III All-In-Suite for all types of tests ► Advantages and benefits ◄ • Ultra-high temperature testing up to 2,000°C of high-performance materials such as CMC • Wide range of applications (tensile, compression, flexure, creep fatigue, shear tests) • Inert gas and vacuum operation possible • Two extensometers for strain measurement up to maximum temperatures 00:00 - Ultra-high temperature testing in vacuum and inert gas 00:06 - Test preparation 00:53 - Chamber for vacuum and inert gas operation 01:17 - Temperature measurement and control 01:44 - testXpert III #ultrahightemperature #CMC #highperformancematerials
