ABSTRACT

SiC has an excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion, high temperature strength and good thermal conductivity. However, it is difficult to densify because of its highly covalent bonding characteristics. Hot-press sintering process was applied to fabricate fully densified SiC ceramics with carbon and boron addition as a sintering additive. The addition of carbon improved the mechanical properties of SiC because it could induce a fine and homogeneous microstructure by the suppression of abnormal growth of SiC grain. Also, the addition of carbon could control the phase transformation of SiC. The phase transformation of 6H to 4H increased with sintering temperature but the addition of carbon decreased that kind of phase transformation.
