摘要
Tensile-loading molecular dynamics simulations show that nanocrystalline SiC not only becomes ductile, but can be superplastically deformed at room temperature when grain sizes are reduced to d similar to 2 nm. The calculated strain rate sensitivity, 0.67, implies a superplastic ceramic able to attain strains of up to 1000% at room temperature and typical strain rates (similar to 10(-2) s(-1)). The origin of the superplasticity is linked to an unusually steep rise in creep rate to 10(6) s(-1) for d = 2 nm. The results explain recent observations in SiC nanowires and suggest novel opportunities for structural ceramics. (C) 2013 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
