Effects of organic additives on microstructure and mechanical properties of porous Si3N4 ceramics
Yu Fangli Wang Huanrui Yang Jianfeng Gao Jiqiang
Green bodies of porous Si3N4 ceramics were shaped by extrusion technique using different organic additives as binder during extrusion molding. Different porosity, microstructures and mechanical properties after the extrusion, drying, debinding and sintering stages were investigated. The solid slurry content of 70–75% and extrusion pressure of 0.5–1.0 MPa had played a decisive role in the smooth realization of extrusion molding. The porous Si3N4 ceramics were obtained with excellent properties using 4% hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) as binder and polyethylene glycol (PEG) of molecular weight, 1000, as plasticizer with a density of 1.91 g cm-3, porosity of 41.70%, three-point bending strength of 166.53 ± 20 MPa, fracture toughness of 2.45 ± 0.2 MPa m1/2 and Weibull modulus (m) of 20.75.

Porous silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramics were fabricated by compression molding and slip casting methods using petroleum coke as pore forming agent, and Y2O3–Al2O3 as sintering additives. Microstructure, mechanical properties and gas permeability of porous Si3N4 ceramics were investigated. The mechanical properties and microstructure of porous Si3N4 ceramics prepared by compression molding were better than those which were prepared by slip casting method, whereas slip casting method is suitable for the preparation of porous Si3N4 ceramics with higher porosity and excellent gas permeability.
