Reaction and Formation of Crystalline Silicon Oxynitride in Si–O–N Systems under Solid High Pressure

Oxidized amorphous Si3 N4 and SiO2 powders were pressed alone or as a mixture under high pressure (1.0–5.0 GPa) at high temperatures (800–1700°C). Formation of crystalline silicon oxynitride (Si2 ON2 ) was observed from amorphous silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) powders containing 5.8 wt% oxygen at 1.0 GPa and 1400°C. The Si2 ON2 coexisted with β-Si3 N4 with a weight fraction of 40 wt%, suggesting that all oxygen in the powders participated in the reaction to form Si2 ON2 . Pressing a mixture of amorphous Si3 N4 of lower oxygen (1.5 wt%) and SiO2 under 1.0–5.0 GPa between 1000° and 1350°C did not give Si2 ON2 phase, but yielded a mixture of α,β-Si3 N4 , quartz, and coesite (a high-pressure form of SiO2 ). The formation of Si2 ON2 from oxidized amorphous Si3 N4 seemed to be assisted by formation of a Si–O–N melt in the system that was enhanced under the high pressure. 相似文献

Silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) was synthesized by a selective combustion reaction of silicon powder with nitrogen in air. The α/β-Si3 N4 ratio of the interior product could be tailored by adjusting the Si3 N4 -diluent content in the reactant mixtures. The synthetic β-Si3 N4 showed a well-crystallized rod-like morphology. Mechanical activation greatly enhanced the reactivity of silicon powder, and the slow oxidation of silicon at the sample surface promoted the combustion reaction in air. The formation mechanism of Si3 N4 was analyzed based on a proposed N2 /O2 diffusion kinetic model, and the calculated result is in good agreement with the experimental phenomenon. 相似文献

The cold-compaction densification behavior of silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) ceramic powder was analyzed using two models: the Shima model and the Cam-Clay model. Triaxial-compression experimental data were used to evaluate these two models. Shima models that used Si3 N4 matrix material with different yield stresses were discussed. It is clear that the Cam-Clay model can effectively simulate the cold-compaction densification behavior of Si3 N4 ceramic powder. The Shima model that used a very high yield stress for the Si3 N4 matrix material slightly overestimated the experimental data, and the Shima model that used the actual yield stress for Si3 N4 matrix material largely overestimated that data. 相似文献

High-strength joining of Si3 N4 ceramics has been achieved by developing a process that effectively eliminates the seam, and may allow for fabrication of large or complex silicon nitride bodies. This approach to joining is based on the concept that when sintering aids are effective in bonding individual grains, they could be equally effective in joining bulk pieces of Si3 N4 . Optimization of the process led to Si3 N4 /Si3 N4 joints with room-temperature bend strengths as high as 950 MPa, corresponding to more than 90% of the bulk strength of the Si3 N4 . At elevated temperatures of 1000° and 1200°C joint strengths of 666 and 330 MPa, respectively, were obtained, which are the highest values reported to date for these temperatures. These bend strengths are also more that 90% of the strength of bulk Si3 N4 measured at these temperatures. 相似文献

Silicon nitride particle-reinforced silicon nitride matrix composites were fabricated by chemical vapor infiltration (CVI). The particle preforms with a bimodal pore size distribution were favorable for the subsequent CVI process, which included intraagglomerate pores (0.1–4 μm) and interagglomerate pores (20–300 μm). X-ray fluorescence results showed that the main elements of the composites are Si, N, and O. The composite is composed of α-Si3 N4 , amorphous Si3 N4 , amorphous SiO2 , and a small amount of β-Si3 N4 and free silicon. The α-Si3 N4 transformed into β-Si3 N4 after heat treatment at 1600°C for 2 h. The flexural strength, dielectric constant, and dielectric loss of the Si3 N4(p) /Si3 N4 composites increased with increasing infiltration time; however, the pore ratios decreased with increasing infiltration time. The maximum value of the flexural strength was 114.07 MPa. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the composites were 4.47 and 4.25 × 10−3 , respectively. The present Si3 N4(p) /Si3 N4 composite is a good candidate for high-temperature radomes. 相似文献

Sintering additives were incorporated into Si3 N4 by attrition and ball milling using both Si3 N4 and Al2 O3 media. Dispersion of Y2 O3 was observed by backscattered electron imaging. Attrition milling for only 15 min using an Si3 N4 medium, was equivalent to 24 h of ball milling. Minimal contamination by the Si3 N4 was encountered.

A new method for preparing high bending strength porous silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) ceramics with controlled porosity has been developed by using pressureless sintering techniques and phosphoric acid (H3 PO4 ) as the pore-forming agent. The fabrication process is described in detail and the sintering mechanism of porous ceramics is analyzed by the X-ray diffraction method and thermal analysis. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the porous Si3 N4 ceramics are investigated, as a function of the content of H3 PO4 . The resultant high porous Si3 N4 ceramics sintered at 1000°–1200°C show a fine porous structure and a relative high bending strength. The porous structure is caused mainly by the volatilization of the H3 PO4 and by the continous reaction of SiP2 O7 binder, which could bond on to the Si3 N4 grains. Porous Si3 N4 ceramics with a porosity of 42%–63%, the bending strength of 50–120 MPa are obtained. 相似文献

The influence of phase formation on the dielectric properties of silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) ceramics, which were produced by pressureless sintering with additives in MgO–Al2 O3 –SiO2 system, was investigated. It seems that the difference in the dielectric properties of Si3 N4 ceramics sintered at different temperatures was mainly due to the difference of the relative content of α-Si3 N4 , β-Si3 N4 , and the intermediate product (Si2 N2 O) in the samples. Compared with α-Si3 N4 and Si2 N2 O, β-Si3 N4 is believed to be a major factor influencing the dielectric constant. The high-dielectric constant of β-Si3 N4 could be attributed to the ionic relaxation polarization. 相似文献

Detailed microstructural analysis of a 10 mol% Y2 O3 fluxed hot-pressed silicon nitride reveals that, in addition to the yttrium-silicon oxynitride phase located at the multiple Si3 N4 grain junctions, there is a thin boundary phase 10 to 80 Å wide separating the silicon nitride and the oxynitride grains. Also, X-ray microanalysis from regions as small as 200 Å across demonstrates that the yttrium-silicon oxynitride, Y2 Si(Si2 O3 N4 ), phase can accommodate appreciable quantities of Ti, W, Fe, Ni, Co, Ca, Mg, Al, and Zn in solid solution. This finding, together with observations of highly prismatic Si3 N4 grains enveloped by Y2 Si(Si2 O3 N4 ), suggests that densification occurred by a liquid-phase "solution-reprecipitation" process. 相似文献

Advanced sintering techniques for consolidation of Si3 N4 powders in the presence of an oxygen-rich liquid phase(s) require high temperatures and usually high nitrogen pressures. A stability diagram is constructed for Si3 N4 as a function of the partial pressures of nitrogen (PN2 ) and silicon (PSi ). High PN2 (20 to 100 atm) increases the stability of Si3 N4 and the oxygen-rich liquid phase by reducing the PSi and PSi0 , respectively. The region of high sinterability is outlined for submicrometer Si3 N4 powders containing 7 wt% BeSiN2 and 7 wt% SiO2 as densification aids . 相似文献

A thorough analysis of a silicon nitride (Si3 N4 )-bonded SiC sidelining material from a Hall-Heroult electrolysis cell is reported. Phase composition before and after chemical degradation of the material is obtained by quantitative analysis using Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data and chemical analysis. The main degradation products as a result of the oxidation of Si3 N4 binder phase are Si2 ON2 in the upper part and Na2 SiO3 in the lower part of the sidelining. The microstructure of α-Si3 N4 (needle) and β-Si3 N4 (shell) as well as the degradation products Si2 ON2 (fiber) and Na2 SiO3 (flake) were revealed by electron microprobe analysis. Chemical reactions and degradation mechanisms are proposed based on the presented findings. The degradation in the lower part is more severe than that in the upper part because Na diffusion from the cathode enhances the oxidation of Si3 N4 . The degradation changes the physical properties of Si3 N4 -bonded SiC such as density and porosity. 相似文献

Pressureless sintering of silicon nitride requires addition of sintering agents. The main part of this study was done in order to homogenize the distribution of sintering agents, in this case Y2 O3 , in a silicon nitride matrix. Colloidal 10-nm Y2 O3 Particles were electrostatically adsorbed on Si3 N4 particle surfaces. The adsorption was studied by X-ray fluorescence analysis and electrophoretic measurements. Addition of Y2 O3 sol to a Si3 N4 suspension decreased the viscosity of the suspension. The slip casting properties of Si3 N4 suspensions with added Y2 O3 sol were examined, and the homogeneity of Y2 O3 in the green compacts was compared with conventionally prepared samples. An improved microstructural homogeneity was obtained when Y2 O3 sol particles were adsorbed on the Si3 N4 particle surfaces. 相似文献

The high-temperature flexural strength of hot-pressed silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) and Si3 N4 -whisker-reinforced Si3 N4 -matrix composites has been measured at a crosshead speed of 1.27 mm/min and temperatures up to 1400°C in a nitrogen atmosphere. Load–displacement curves for whisker-reinforced composites showed nonelastic fracture behavior at 1400°C. In contrast, such behavior was not observed for monolithic Si3 N4 . Microstructures of both materials have been examined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The results indicate that grain-boundary sliding could be responsible for strength degradation in both monolithic Si3 N4 and its whisker composites. The origin of the nonelastic failure behavior of Si3 N4 -whisker composite at 1400°C was not positively identified but several possibilities are discussed. 相似文献

The existence of compounds between Si3 N4 -CeO2 and Si3 N4 -Ce2 O3 was investigated for firing temperatures of 1600° to 1700°C. The two new monoclinic compounds found were Ce2 O3 ·2Si3 N4 with lattice parameters a = 16.288, b = 4.848, and c =7.853 Å and β=91.54° and Ce4 Si2 O7 N2 with lattice parameters a = 10.360, b = 10.865, and c =3.974 Å and β=90.33°. Cerium orthosilicate (Ce 4.67 (SiO4 )3 O) is present during firing as a glassy intermediate phase which promotes sintering and densification and then reacts with silicon nitride to form cerium silicon oxynitrde (CeSiO2 N). 相似文献

The tribological behavior of Mo5 Si3 -particle-reinforced silicon nitride (Si3 N4 ) composites was investigated by pin-on-plate wear testing under dry conditions. The friction coefficient of the Mo5 Si3 –Si3 N4 composites and Si3 N4 essentially decreased slowly with the sliding distance, but showed sudden increase for several times during the wear testing. The average friction coefficient of the Si3 N4 decreased with the incorporation of submicrometer-sized Mo5 Si3 particles and also as the content of Mo5 Si3 particles increased. When the Mo5 Si3 –Si3 N4 composites were oxidized at 700°C in air, solid-lubricant MoO3 particles were generated on the surface layer. Oxidized Mo5 Si3 –Si3 N4 composites showed self-lubricating behavior, and the average friction coefficient and wear rate of the oxidized 2.8 wt% Mo5 Si3 –Si3 N4 composite were 0.43 and 0.72 × 10−5 mm3 (N·m)−1 , respectively. Both values were ∼30% lower than those for the Si3 N4 tested in an identical manner. 相似文献

The results of two-step oxidation experiments on chemically-vapor-deposited Si3 N4 and SiC at 1350°C show that a correlation exists between the presence of a Si2 N2 O interphase and the strong oxidation resistance of Si3 N4 . During normal oxidation, k p for SiC was 15 times higher than that for Si3 N4 , and the oxide scale on Si3 N4 was found by SEM and TEM to contain a prominent Si2 N2 O inner layer. However, when oxidized samples are annealed in Ar for 1.5 h at 1500°C and reoxidized at 1350°C as before, three things happen: the oxidation k p increases over 55-fold for Si3 N4 , and 3.5-fold for SiC; the Si3 N4 and SiC oxidize with nearly equal k p 's; and, most significant, the oxide scale on Si3 N4 is found to be lacking an inner Si2 N2 O layer. The implications of this correlation for the competing models of Si3 N4 oxidation are discussed. 相似文献

The synthesis and structure of a monodispersed spherical Si3 N4 /SiC nanocomposite powder have been studied. The Si3 N4 /SiC nanocomposite powder was synthesized by heating under argon a spherical Si3 N4 /C powder. The spherical Si3 N4 /C powder was prepared by heating a spherical organosilica powder in a nitrogen atmosphere and was composed of a mixture of nanosized Si3 N4 and free carbon particles. During the heat treatment at 1450°C, the Si3 N4 /C powder became a Si3 N4 /SiC composite powder and finally a SiC powder after 8 h, while retaining its spherical shape. The composition of the Si3 N4 /SiC composite powder changed with the duration of the heat treatment. The results of TEM, SEM, and selected area electron diffraction showed that the Si3 N4 /SiC composite powder was composed of homogeneously distributed nanosized Si3 N4 and SiC particles. 相似文献

Relationship between the Average Coordination Number and Properties of Chalconitride Glasses 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Chalconitride glasses obtained by doping Ge-As-Se and Ge-S chalcogenide glass systems with Si3 N4 (0.35 and 0.50 wt%) have been studied; these glasses have been doped with Si3 N4 to improve their thermal and mechanical prop-erties. The glasses have been melted under vacuum in sealed silica ampoules, quenched in air, and subsequently annealed. Measured properties include the transition temperature ( T g ), microhardness ( H v ), and thermal expansion coefficient (α). The effect of Si3 N4 doping is system depen-dent. The concept of average coordination number () is used to explain this dependence. For the glasses in the chal-cogen-rich region, a greater increase in thermal and mechanical properties with Si3 N4 doping is assigned to the fact that both the introduction of silicon and the substitution of nitrogen for chalcogens enhance the degree of crosslinking within the substructures. However, for the glasses in the chalcogen-deficient region, extra silicon atoms that are in-troduced with Si3 N4 doping are not helpful in further crosslinking the network, because of the deficiency in the bridging chalcogens. A slight increase in T g with increasing , in the case of chalcogen deficiency, might result from the "wrong-bond effect," which provides some additional crosslinking in connections of the networked island sub-structural units. 相似文献

Silicon nitride–silicon oxynitride (Si3 N4 –Si2 N2 O) in situ composites have been fabricated via either the annealing or the superplastic deformation of sintered Si3 N4 that has been doped with a silica-containing additive. In this study, quantitative texture measurements, including pole figures and X-ray diffraction patterns, are used in conjunction with scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy techniques to examine the degree of preferred orientation and texture-development mechanisms in these materials. The results indicate that (i) only superplastic deformation can produce strong textures in the β-Si3 N4 matrix, as well as Si2 N2 O grains that are formed in situ ; (ii) texture development in the β-Si3 N4 matrix mainly results from grain rotation via grain-boundary sliding; and (iii) for Si2 N2 O, a very strong strain-dependent texture occurs in two stages, namely, preferred nucleation and anisotropic grain growth. 相似文献

We report a stabilized Si3 N4 simply with nanocoatings of h-BN. Very thin BN coatings are enough for suppressing the decomposition of Si3 N4 particles. This approach should open up a new potential way to prepare stabilized Si3 N4 . Reduced nitridation of H3 BO3 -coated Si3 N4 powder at 1050°C in a flowing mixed 40% N2 +60% H2 atmosphere, and then following heat-treatment at 1500°C in a flowing N2 atmosphere can realize the nanocoating of BN on Si3 N4 particles. Compared with the Si3 N4 powder without nanocoatings of h-BN, TG and XRD analysis showed that the obtained h-BN nanocoated Si3 N4 powder demonstrated obviously improved stability in argon atmosphere. 相似文献
