Abstract: | Quite strong joints between silicon nitride based bodies have been made by incorporating a layer of aluminium and oxides between the bodies and heating in a nitriding atmosphere. The joints are resistant to thermal shock and maintain their strength at 1200° C. Microscopic, DTA and X-ray diffraction studies indicated that sialon phases are present in the joints, and that the bonding reaction involves the reduction of Si3N4 by aluminium and the subsequent renitriding of the resultant silicon, as well as the simultaneous nitriding of a portion of the aluminium. Transmission electron microscopy of a joint between hot pressed and reaction bonded silicon nitrides showed that 15R aluminium nitride polytype sialon was present on the reaction bonded side of the joint and ß -sialon on the hot pressed side. |
