Problems solved by technology

The sintering preparation of dense silicon nitride ceramics has always been a research hotspot, because silicon nitride is a strong covalent bond material, which makes it difficult to sinter in the solid state, and it is necessary to add sintering aids to promote its sintering through the liquid phase as a mass transfer medium. Densification sintering; At present, the production of silicon nitride ceramic products mostly relies on high-cost sintering methods such as hot pressing and air pressure sintering. There is a transition from α phase to β phase, which has a decisive influence on the densification degree and the improvement of mechanical properties of silicon nitride ceramics, and it is difficult to complete a higher phase transition at low temperature, which greatly limits the Industrialized production and popular application of high-performance silicon nitride ceramics in many high-tech fields
[0003] Most of the preparation of silicon nitride is sintered by hot pressing or air pressure at high temperature: for example: Zhang Hui's patent "A Preparation Method for Densified Silicon Nitride Ceramic Material" (publication number CN103553632A) adopts a sintering temperature of 1750 ℃~1850℃, the high sintering temperature leads to a sharp increase in the required equipment and cost
Zhao Zhenwei's patent "a sintering method for improving the performance consistency of silicon nitride materials" (publication number CN104119079A) uses air pressure and hot pressing sintering methods, resulting in high production costs and low efficiency
Yu Fangli's patent "A Silicon Nitride Ceramic and Its Preparation Method" (publication number CN105859301A) adopts air pressure sintering method, and the sintering temperature also reaches 1800°C, resulting in high cost
[0004] Due to the high sintering temperature and harsh production equipment requirements of silicon nitride ceramics, its industrial production efficiency is greatly reduced. At present, there are very few related researches on the technology of preparing high-β-phase dense silicon nitride ceramics at low temperature. Therefore, a low-temperature preparation High-performance silicon nitride ceramic preparation technology becomes extremely important
