Abstract

Abstract: Refractory grade β-St₃N₄ powder was pressureless sintered with the aim of lowering cost. It is showed that β-St₃N₄ has good sinterability. A microstructure with small rod-like grains was obtained, which dispersed uniformly in the matrix, no abnormal rod-like grains was observed. The material displayed a strength of 587MPa and fracture toughness of 5.3MPa.m^1/2, which allow the material used in normal circumstance.

Key words: silicon nitride, refractory grade, pressureless sinter, microstructure, mechanical property

CLC Number:

TQ163
