AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patented technology describes making materials with improved properties such as higher tensile stress or better impact absorption compared to existing composites made up entirely of SiC alone. These improvements can be achieved without adding other ingredients like carbon black (CB) or plasma treatment.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed by this patented method relates to improving materials that have superior mechanical characteristics such as being strong but prone to cracking or breaking down under severe conditions during use. This can be important because they may affect their overall durability over time if left untreated without proper protection from corrosive environments like water vapor.

Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon nitride-silicon carbide composite and a preparing method thereof, and relates to the field of ceramic materials. Alpha-silicon nitride powder is sintered with the aidof a small amount of sintering aid, the crystal type transformation of the alpha-silicon nitride powder is induced through beta-silicon nitride seed crystals, and the density and mechanical strengthof the product are increased. Meanwhile, a biscuit is densified through three stages of sintering under the nitrogen atmosphere, the self-toughening effect is generated at high temperature and high pressure, and the high-strength and high-toughness silicon nitride ceramic is obtained in combination with the toughening effect of silicon carbide. The silicon nitride-silicon carbide composite is prepared through the method and has the advantages of being high in strength, high in toughness and resistant to wear and corrosion.
