Abstract

Thermodynamic equilibrium condensed phases for chemical vapor deposition of ZrC-SiC from the MTS-ZrCl 4-CH 4-H 2 system were calculated by FactSage programs based on Gibbs free energy minimization of the reaction system. The deposition phase diagrams, which indicated the condense phases, were constructed according to the calculation results. The effects of temperature and partial pressure of precursors on the final condensed phases were studied. The results indicate that the codeposition is more effective in the presence of an independent carbon source, CH 4, with a reasonable partial pressure than in the absence of CH 4. The experimental results are in good agreement with the thermodynamic calculation results.
