Abstract

To produce a homogeneous composite of silicon carbide whiskers in a silicon nitride matrix, the whiskers were formed in situ. The resulting bulk density was higher than that obtained by a physical mixing of the components using a dispersion procedure. Bending strength at room temperature of the in situ formed composite was about the same as that for the physically mixed composite when the small amount of carbon remaining in the in situ formed composite was removed.
