A sialon-containing material based on the Ovruchsk quartzite,aluminum powder,and coke

Conclusions A study of the formation of sialon in a charge based on the Ovruchsk quartzite and fine aluminum powder established that the density of the products increases with increasing content of the aluminum fines in the body (from 40 up to 60%). The material fired at 1450°C in nitrogen atmosphere consists of-sialon, corundum, and a small quantity of aluminum nitride and silicon oxynitride as impurities.Translated from Ogneupory, No. 6, pp. 5–6, June, 1992.
