Silicon nitride ( Si 3 N 4) has attracted substantial interest because of its extreme chemical and physical properties, but the sintering densification of Si 3 N 4 is difficult, and it is easily oxidized in the high-temperature air to impact high-temperature strength, which restricts its applied range. In order to decrease the oxidization and improve the strength of Si 3 N 4 at high temperature, the surface of Si 3 N 4 is coated with Al ( OH )3 and Y ( OH )3 to synthesis Si 3 N 4@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core-shell composite particles. Through TEM, XRD, and BET analysis, when pH is about 9, Si 3 N 4@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core-shell composite particles are successfully synthesized by co-precipitation methods. Coating layer is about 200 nm, which is compaction and conformability. Dispersion of coated Si 3 N 4 with Al ( OH )3 and Y ( OH )3 particles are very good. Synthesis of Si 3 N 4@ Al ( OH )3– Y ( OH )3 core-shell composite powder will lay the foundation for preparing high-performance YAG/Si 3 N 4 multiphase ceramic materials.
