Reaction-bonding sintering silicon carbide (RB-SiC) toughened by 10vol% short carbon fibers were produced by Gel-casting method using water soluble epoxy as gel former and then reaction sintering at 1750°C under vacuum atmosphere for 2 h . SEM showed that short carbon fibers could disperse uniformly in the preforms and sintered carbon fiber reinforced silicon carbide composites (Cf/SiC). The mechanical test results showed that the strength decrease from 286 MPa for RB-SiC to 231 MPa for Cf/SiC, however, the fracture toughness of Cf/SiC increased from 3.65 MPa m1/2 to 5.28 MPa m1/2 compared with RB-SiC. The strength decrease of the Cf/SiC should be ascribed to the chemical reaction between the addition of short fibers and matrix, and the increase of the fracture toughness could be attributed to fiber debonding, fiber pull-out and crack deflection .

AbstractAlumina-based composites were fabricated by reaction sintering from two different sintering powder mixtures: alumina with silica (SiO2) and alumina with silicon carbide (SiC; to allow oxidation to form SiO2). After sintering, SiO2 underwent complete reaction to form alumina/mullite composites. In terms of microstructure, the density and grain size of ceramic samples were investigated. The density of the composites prepared by alumina and SiC was lower than those of alumina and the composites prepared by alumina and SiO2. The grain size increased as the sintering temperature increased. In terms of mechanical properties, fracture surfaces, hardness, and fracture toughness were investigated. It was found that the fracture surface of alumina was rather intergranular, whereas the fracture surface of the composites was more transgranular. The hardness of the composites was higher than that of alumina at the same sintering temperature. However, the fracture toughness of the composites was not significantly different compared to that of alumina.

A variety of different promising high temperature structural materials exist under the generic names of silicon nitride (Si3N4) and silicon carbide (SiC). Each of these materials are fabricated by a different method and thus, each develop different microstructures and different properties. The relations between fabrication, microstructure and properties will be reviewed for both Si3N4 and SiC fabricated by (a) reaction-sintering, (b) conventional sintering, and (c) hot-pressing. The object of this review is to allow the engineer to obtain a better understanding of the different materials that are becoming available for high temperature structural design applications. An Appendix presents the properties of these materials required for stress analysis.

SiC whisker was introduced into reaction bonded silicon carbide to produce high performances composite by slip casting and reaction sintering. This study aimed at morphology of SiC whisker in the reaction bonded silicon carbide ceramics. The whisker was homogeneously dispersed into SiC/C suspension by ball-milling and ultrasonic dispersion. By chemical etching, the whisker displays the original burl profile on the polished surface of the composite. The raise of whisker fraction leads to an increase of porosity of the green body; and thus a decrease of density of the sintered body. For the specimen with 25 wt.% whisker, the rapid reaction of carbon with excess molten silicon leads to the missing of burl profile on the whisker surface. It is speculated that β-SiC on the whisker surface dissolved in the molten silicon during liquid silicon infiltration.
