“…On the other hand, PMMA sites collapsed and were not detected in the zero Si 3 N 4 specimens (0SN20P). A mechanism of PMMA site collapse in Si 3 N 4 -free systems has been proposed 14) . Briefly, the collapse of the PMMA site is dependent on the size ratio of PMMA to silicon being larger than a critical value.…”

“…Two stages, nitriding and post-sintering, in this process are sources of compositional and processing variables, such as species and content of sintering additive, diluents, multistep nitriding temperatures, atmosphere, and flow rate of nitriding gas. The effects of various components on nitriding behavior of powder mixtures, 13) a mechanism of pore structure evolution depending on the size ratio of pore former to Si particle 14) and the relationship between permeability and pore structure 15) were previously reported. The control of porosity and pore shape has also been studied using various pore former contents and sintering conditions.…”

“…With preferred material properties such as complex pore channel paths and large specific surface area aided by their rod‐like grain morphology, silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4 ) ceramics make excellent candidates for filtering media 1–3 . However, the diameter (ϕ) of the pore channels in porous sintered reaction‐bonded silicon nitride ceramics (SRBSNs) is usually restricted to ∼1 μm for the following reasons: (1) the nitriding mechanism involves both gas and solid phases, and (2) grain growth is limited to 1–2 μm in the porous body by the liquid phase sintering vehicle 3–5 . As narrow pore channels produce a large pressure drop across current SRBSN filters, the widening of their pore channels to the size of those in commercial filters (ϕ≥10 μm) is strongly desired.…”
