Abstract:Hetero-modulus ceramics (HMC) present the combination of a ceramic matrix with inclusions of a dispersed phase with considerably lower values of Young's modulus, resulting in a material with significantly advanced properties. Densified ´-Si 6-x Al x O x N 8-x based HMC materials, with various volume contents of low-modulus α-BN phase and modifiers such as TiN or ZrO 2 in sialon matrix, were prepared by high-temperature reaction hot-pressing in nitrogen atmosphere. The pristine blend composition for reaction ho… Show more
