“…This method involves the catalytic reaction of chlorides of silicon or carbon with corresponding alternate sources of silicon or carbon. Attolini et al [120] have prepared cubic SiCNWs by chemical reaction of silicon powder in an open tube with carbon tetrachloride (CCl 4 ) and nickel as the catalyst. This method is based on the reaction between chlorine at the surface of silicon substrate in nitrogen atmosphere at a temperature of 1000°C, where the carbon produced by CCl 4 thermal decomposition acts as a precursor for the formation of the SiCNWs.…”

“…SiC whisker and fibers are often used as reinforcement materials in ceramic-matrix composites due to their high elastic modulus and strength. 11 The twins caused kinks or zigzag appearance of a contoured surface of SiC nanowires. This value is larger than the corresponding values for microscale SiC whiskers and fibers.…”

The mechanical behavior of twinned silicon carbide (SiC) nanowires under combined tension-torsion and compression-torsion is investigated using molecular dynamics simulations with an empirical potential. The simulation results show that both the tensile failure stress and buckling stress decrease under combined tension-torsional and combined compression-torsional strain, and they decrease with increasing torsional rate under combined loading. The torsion rate has no effect on the elastic properties of the twinned SiC nanowires. The collapse of the twinned nanowires takes place in a twin stacking fault of the nanowires.

“…Motivated by these applications of 1D SiC nanomaterials, a variety of techniques have been reported for the synthesis of SiC nanowires, including chemical vapor deposition [13,14], thermal evaporation [15,16], carbothermal reduction [17,18], laser ablation [19], arc-discharge [20], carbon nanotubes confined reaction [21,22], and catalyst-assisted [23,24]. In most of these methods, expensive raw materials, catalysts, and sophisticated techniques were used.…”
