Effective utilization of industrial solid wastes is of great benefit for environmental and
economic needs. In order to clarify the theoretical issues and pave the way to synthesize …

A new β-SiAlON ceramic tool with satisfactory cutting performance was prepared by
microwave sintering. Effects of sintering additives and sintering process on mechanical …

The properties of SiAlON ceramics are strongly affected by the composition and structure of
the intergranular phase, which are controlled by dopants, sintering conditions and starting …

α-SiAlONs are commonly produced by liquid phase sintering of Si3N4 with AlN and Y2O3 as
additives. The formation of the α-SiAlONs using a mixed oxide (RE2O3), containing yttria …

In this work, the use of a natural yttrium oxide and rare earth oxide solid solution (CRE2O3)
as stabilizers of the α-Si3N4 phase to form α-SiAlON has been investigated. This oxide mix …

The objective of this work was the obtaining “in situ” of α-SiAlON–SiC composite, using an
alternative rare-earth oxide mixture, RE2O3, as sintering additive, by two different sintering …

The abnormal grain growth in α–sialon ceramics was investigated. The preparations had
stoichiometric compositions on the oxygen-rich phase boundary, and they were stabilized by …

In situ reinforced microstructures with well-dispersed elongated grains, up to 10 μm in
length, embedded in matrices consisting of submicron equiaxed grains, were developed by …

Typical α/β-SiAlON starting composition of formula Nd0. 33Si9. 38Al2. 62O1. 62N14. 38 was
densified by two different sintering processes, hot pressing (HP) and gas pressure sintering …

O objetivo desse trabalho foi a preparação in situ do compósito alfa-SiAlON-SiC com
desenvolvimento de solução sólida de nitreto de silício (SiAlON) durante a sinterização …
