    Notes: Lu2O3 and SiO2 were used as sintering additives and rod-like β-Si3N4 seeds were added toenhance β-Si3N4 grain unidirectional growth. Silicon nitride ceramics were prepared by tape castingand gas pressure sintering[removed info]at 1950oC in 10 atm nitrogen atmosphere for 6 h. Compare to the no-seededSi3N4, the seeded and tape-cast Si3N4 ceramics have obvious anisotropic microstructure andanisotropic properties. When a stress applied along with the grain alignment direction, the bendingstrength of the seeded and tape-cast Si3N4 at 1500oC was 738 MPa, which was almost the same as itsroom temperature bending strength. However, the bending strength of the seeded and tape-cast atroom temperature was 556 MPa (perpendicular direction); and their thermal conductivity were 67W/m·K (perpendicular direction) and 83 W/m·K (parallel direction), respectively. The anisotropicproperties of the seeded and tape-cast Si3N4 were attributable to the elongated Si3N4 grain alignment

    Notes: The synthesis of magnesium silicon nitride (MgSiN2) by direct nitridation of a Si/Mg2Si/Mg/Si3N4 powder mixture is described. A nucleation period at 550°C and stepwise heat-treatment schedule up to 1350°C was adopted for the synthesis of MgSiN2 powder, based on TG-DTA measurements. The influence of the ratio of constituents on the final phase composition also has been studied. The content of magnesium and silicon in the starting powder should fulfill the conditions Mg2Si/Mg ≥ 3 and Si3N4/Sitot≥ 0.5 to obtain single-phase MgSiN2. The silicon particle size of 〈0.5 μm is preferable to decrease the time of nitridation. The oxygen content of as-synthesized powders is in the range 0.9–1.2 wt%. However, the oxygen content of MgSiN2 powder decreases further by the addition of 2 wt% CaF2 or 0.75 wt% carbon and reaching the lowest value of 0.45 wt% oxygen after carbothermal reduction in an alumina-tube furnace.

    Notes: Addition of Y2O3 as a sintering additive to porous β-SiAlON (Si6−zAlzOzN8−z, z= 0.5) ceramics has been investigated for improved mechanical properties. Porous SiAlON ceramics with 0.05–0.15 wt% (500–1500 wppm) Y2O3 were fabricated by pressureless sintering at temperatures of 1700°, 1800°, and 1850°C. The densification, microstructure, and mechanical properties were compared with those of Y2O3-free ceramics of the same chemical composition. Although this level of Y2O3 addition did not change the phase formation and grain size, the grain bonding appeared to be promoted, and the densification to be enhanced. There was a significant increase in the flexural strength of the SiAlON ceramics relative to the Y2O3-free counterpart. After exposure in 1M hydrochloric acid solution at 70°C for 120 h, no remarkable weight loss and degradation of the mechanical properties (flexural and compression strength) was observed, which was attributed to the limited grain boundary phase, and with the minor Y2O3 addition the supposed formation of Y-α-SiAlON.

    Notes: The thermal shock behavior of isotropic and anisotropic porous Si3N4 was evaluated using the water-quenching technique. The critical temperature difference for crack initiation was found to be strongly dependent on the ratio of fracture strength to elastic modulus. Because of a very high strain-to-failure, anisotropic porous Si3N4 showed no macroscopic cracks and was able to retain its strength even at a quenching-temperature difference of ∼1400°C.

    Notes: Porous silicon nitride ceramic with a porosity from 0–0.3 was fabricated by partial hot-pressing of a powder mixture of α-Si3N4 and 5 wt% Yb2O3 as sintering additive. Irrespective of the porosity, the samples exhibited almost the same microstructural features including grain size, grain aspect ratio, and pore size. Porosity dependences of Young's modulus, flexural strength, and fracture toughness (KIC) were investigated. All these properties decreased with increasing porosity. However, because of the fibrous microstructure, the decreases of flexural strength and fracture toughness were moderate compared with the much greater decrease of Young's modulus. Thus, the strain tolerance (fracture strength/Young's modulus) increased with increasing porosity. The critical energy release rate also increased slightly with an increasing volume fraction of porosity to 0.166 and remained at the same level with that of the dense sample when the porosity was 0.233. They decreased as porosity increased further.

    Notes: β-Si3N4 ceramics sintered with a series of rare-earth (RE = La, Nd, Gd, Y, Yb and Sc) oxide additives were fabricated by hot pressing and subsequent annealing. Their microstructures, lattice oxygen contents, and thermal conductivities were evaluated. Mean grain size increased, while lattice oxygen content decreased, and hence, thermal conductivity increased with decreasing ionic radius of the rare-earth element. In all cases, a marked change was observed in the order of ionic radius from La to Nd to Gd, and a little change was observed below them. Rare-earth oxide additives significantly influenced the thermal conductivity of β-Si3N4, unlike in the case of AlN.

    Notes: A monolithic SiC ceramic and two SiC–C composite ceramics containing 10 and 20 vol% graphite were fully densified with Al4C3 and B4C as additives. The tribological properties of these materials were evaluated by sliding against sintered silicon carbide under dry conditions using two tribometers, block-on-ring and pin-on-disk, where wear occurred under low and high contact stresses, respectively. For all three materials, under low stress, worn surfaces were smooth and wear processes were dominated by tribochemical reaction; under high stress, worn surfaces were rough and wear processes were dominated by fracture and three-body abrasion. A lubricating effect of the graphite particles in the SiC–C composites was observed in all sliding tests. However, while the addition of graphite could concurrently result in a reduction in friction and an increase in wear resistance in the block-on-ring tests, the addition of graphite led to sharply enhanced wear rates despite the lowered coefficients of friction in the pin-on-disk tests. The cause for that difference was attributed to the effect of both the hardness of the materials and the contact stresses.

    Notes: Porous SiC ceramics were synthesized by sintering pressed and pressed/CIPed powder compacts of α-Si3N4, carbon (Si3N4:C = 1:3 mol as ratio), and sintering aids, at 1600°C for few hours to achieve a reaction, and subsequently sintering at a temperature range of 1750°–1900°C, in an argon atmosphere. High porosities from 45%–65% were achieved by low shrinkage with large weight loss. Formation of pure 2H-SiC phase via a reaction between Si3N4 and carbon can be demonstrated by X-ray diffractometry. The resultant porous SiC samples were characterized by SiC grain microstructures, pore-size distribution, and flexural strength. This method has the advantage of fabricating high-porous SiC ceramics with fine microstructure and good properties at a relatively low temperature.

    Notes: Single-phase β′-SiAlON (Si6−zAlzOzN8−z, z= 0–4.2) ceramics with porous structure have been prepared by pressureless sintering of powder mixtures of á-Si3N4, AlN, and Al2O3 of the SiAlON compositions. A solution of AlN and Al2O3 into Si3N4 resulted in the β′-SiAlON, and full densification was prohibited because no other sintering additives were used. Relative densities ranging from 50%–90% were adjusted with the z-value and sintering temperature. The results of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy analyses indicated that single-phase β′-SiAlON free from a grain boundary glassy phase could be obtained. Both grain and pore sizes increased with increasing z-value. Low z-value resulted in a relatively high flexural strength.

    Notes: Abrasive jet machining (AJM) is proposed as a new approach to surface finishing of structural ceramics. The effect of AJM on the material removal behavior of a commercially available alumina ceramic, and its effect on mechanical properties, was characterized and compared with identical material subjected to conventional finishing processes. Conventional grinding of the ceramic resulted in a surface that was dominated by intergranular fracture, whereas, during AJM, impact by the abrasives led to material removal in a manner resembling ductile behavior, and the resulting surface appearance was much smoother. A significant improvement in flexural strength was attained, compared with the strength of both the ground and lapped samples, because of an induced compressive residual stress.
