Abstract:AlN/SiC composites with 5 wt.% Y2O3addition were fabricated by pressureless sintering at 1700-1950 oC. The influences of sintering temperature and SiC content on the relative density, mechanical property and thermal conductivity were studied. With sintering temperature increasing from 1700 oC to 1750 oC, the relative density increased significantly to about 98.0%, without evident changes from 1750 oC to 1900 oC, and then decreased slightly at 1950 oC. As SiC content increased, the flexural strength of composit… Show more
