Problems solved by technology

However, when applied in some environments with high requirements for wear resistance, the traditional Si 3 N 4 Due to the phase transformation of ceramics during the sintering process, the α-phase with intrinsically high Vickers hardness will transform into the β-phase with intrinsically high toughness but slightly lower hardness, which makes the wear resistance of ceramics insufficient during use. Unable to meet application requirements
