Abstract
The production of sialons from relatively cheap and impure starting materials is thought to offer the potential for much wider use of these ceramics. It has been shown that the amounts that can be produced in a packed bed reactor are relatively large, and that a continuous production process is feasible. The powders can be sintered to high densities in either a protective powder bed or under a protective gas atmosphere without the use of additives. Some preliminary properties have been determined and suggest that the sialons derived from clay and coal have properties superior to those of many conventional refractories.
