    Abstract:

    The developed lightweight dodecaboride - and boron carbide-based ceramic composites hold great potential for a wide range of applications in extreme conditions: personal protection or for armored defense of ground military equipment and vehicles for the manufacture of abrasive nozzles, friction pairs for pumping oil and other aggressive liquids, constructional ceramics for nuclear power plants, etc. The correlations between structures and mechanical characteristics of alpha-AlB12-, AlB12C2-, B4C-based lightweight ceramics and composites synthesized or sintered by hot pressing (at 30 MPa). The effect of C, TiC and SiC additions on the properties of the resultant composites and the particularities of the ceramics destruction under shock loading are discussed. Computer modeling of the influence of construction parameters of ceramic-composite barrier on ballistic steel rod of the B-32 armor-piercing bullet (hardness HRC = 67 and 5,32 g weight of the steel core) into a two-layer ceramic-composite barrier was performed. Ballistic tests performed on 10 mm thick plates fabricated from the developed ceramics showed that the materials could withstand shot using a bullet with initial kinetic energy of 3.7 kJ.
