摘要
It is extremely difficult to obtain fully densified ceramics, especially large mechanical components by sintering powders. Thus the influence of pores must be considered when designing ceramics. In order to apply ceramics as a structural material, the influence of pores on the mechanical properties must be reduced. As the modification, carbon coating a commercial Si3N4 powder was carried out. The coated carbon reacts with the oxidation layer on the as-received Si3N4 powder to form nano sized SiC particles. Some of these SiC particles are located at the grain boundaries of the Si3N4.phases. Porosity was varied maintaining constant grain size by using pulse electric current sintering. It is concluded that the carbon coating improves the fracture toughness by reducing the pore influence on this property.
