Notes:
The objective of this manuscript was to investigate the synthesis of SiC by carbothermal– reductionreactions of sepiolite. Sepiolite of Serbian origin and carbon (from various precursors) as a reducingagent were used. The green bodies with various C/SiO2 ratios were carbonized at 1073 K and heattreatedat 1673 K in a controlled Ar flow atmosphere. Phase evolution and phase content werefollowed as a function of C/SiO2 ratio and carbon origin. The starting materials and products werecharacterized by means of XRD and SEM. The results show that sepiolite can be very effectivesource for obtaining silicon carbide powders
