High‐temperature strength of liquid‐phase‐sintered silicon carbide ceramics: A review

Abstract: Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising ceramic material for high-temperature structural applications, owing to its high flexural strength and room temperature (RT) strength retention ability at elevated temperatures (≥1400°C). This study reviews the influence of critical factors (grain-boundary structure, additive composition, additive content, microstructure, and testing atmosphere) on the RT strength retention at high temperatures and the high-temperature strength of LPS-SiC ceramics. The review suggests that … Show more

“…Therefore, it is a widely used method for the fabrication of SiC and SiC‐based ceramic matrix composites 6 . However, even though the liquid‐phase sintering additives are employed, sintering temperatures in the range of 1700–2100°C are usually required to consolidate SiC ceramics to near fully density 6,16 . On the other hand, the mechanical properties of SiC fibers are significantly deteriorated at temperatures above 1500°C, due to the grain growth of SiC fibers 25–27 .…”

“…7 Therefore, various sintering additives have been employed to improve consolidation of SiC, including both the solid-state sintering additives, such as B 4 C-C, B-C, and Al-B-C, [8][9][10] and the liquid-phase sintering additives, such as Al 2 O 3 , AlN, and rare-earth oxides (RE 2 O 3 ). [11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Liquid-phase sintering additives have been proven to be more efficient, due to a significantly higher diffusion rate of atoms achieved in a liquid when compared to a solid.…”

“…[1][2][3] Owing to these advantages, SiC is one of the most important structural ceramics used in heat exchangers, gas turbine components, and accident-tolerant fuel cladding in light-water reactors. [4][5][6][7] However, conventional SiC ceramics have high electrical resistivity, hardness, and brittleness, which makes the processing of complex components difficult. Materials with low-electrical resistivity (<100 Ω cm) can be efficiently machined with high precision into complex surfaces through electric discharge machining (EDM).…”

“…Currently, most of the ceramics are produced by molding raw powder, followed by sintering. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] During powder processing, sintering is caused via dynamic mass transfer, resulting in densification and microstructure development. Therefore, understanding and controlling sintering is extremely important for producing better ceramics.…”
