Sialons are the spotlight of current investigation as low-cost and outstanding alternatives to
the currently used metal alloys in various applications. The excellent high-temperature …

The composition and microstructure of sandwich structure Al 2 O 3/Si 3 N 4/YAlO multilayer
films deposited by magnetron sputtering were investigated. The results of X-ray diffraction …

The phase formation behavior of β′-SiAlON with the general formula Si 6-z Al z O z N 8-z
was studied comprehensively for z values from 1 to 3 using spark plasma sintering (SPS) as …

Abstract α/β-SiAlON composite ceramics using powders mixed through different processes
were prepared via spark plasma sintering. Effects of different powder mixing methods (ball …

In recent decades, due to some limitations from alumina (Al 2 O 3) and zirconia (ZrO 2),
silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) has been investigated as a novel bioceramic material, mainly in …

Boron nitride bonded porous silicon aluminum oxynitride composite was fabricated by gel-
casting, precursor infiltration and pyrolysis process, and the composition, microstructure …

SiAlON ceramics are primarily employed in ceramic cutting tools, which exploit their stable
physical properties in high-temperature cutting environments due to their excellent …

In the present study, polymer-coated and Si 3 N 4-modified glaze was developed to provide
a synergetic effect of an antibacterial and superhydrophobic property on ceramic tile surface …

This study evaluated the effects of different Z-values on the physical, chemical, and
biological properties of β-SiAlON ceramics. Increasing the Z-value of the β-Si 3 N 4 solid …

Utilising SPS, fully dense α-Sialon ceramics were obtained during sintering at temperatures
as low as 1550° C. This enabled the full densification α-Sialon composites with 10 and 100 …
