Abstract

Abstract

Compared with traditional transparent materials, transparent ceramics have excellent impact resistance at the same areal density, which contributes to its giant potential in the field of transparent armor protection. The studies of the damage response and damage evolution law of transparent ceramics under impact play a vital role in the structural design and protection of transparent ceramic armors. In order to compare the difference between traditional transparent materials and typical transparent ceramic materials under the impact damage process, a 9 mm-ballistic gun launch platform was used to conduct edge-on impact (EOI) tests on three transparent materials, including float glass, YAG transparent ceramics and magnesium aluminum spinel transparent ceramics. The impact process of the fragments was captured by a high-speed video camera, and the change rule of the crushing zone and the propagation distance of the main crack over time was analyzed. The results show that the area of the crushing zone in three materials was negatively correlated with the strength of the material when the fragment impact velocity ranged from 200 to 300 m/s. For the same material, within this velocity range, the impact velocity of the fragments had no significant effect on the propagation velocity of the main crack. Besides, the macroscale differences on the damage evolution characteristics of three materials are investigated. Through the scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation on the recovered ceramic fragments, the similarities and differences on the damage characteristics of the two transparent ceramic materials at the mesoscale are analyzed in detail. The change that intergranular fracture transformed into transgranular fracture on the radial crack occurred in both spinel and YAG transparent ceramics, while the ring fracture surfaces were almost all along the intergranular fracture. Compared with the magnesium aluminum spinel transparent ceramics, YAG transparent ceramics possessed “peel off” phenomenon that fracture occurred along the grain boundary. Besides, the transgranular fracture surface in MgAl₂O₄ transparent ceramics was in jagged irregular shape, while that of YAG transparent ceramics was smooth.
