Abstract
Silicon nitride materials offer a high potential of good mechanical properties at room and elevated temperatures. These properties make them to be promising materials for manufacturing ceramic parts which work at high temperatures, e.g. turbocharger rotors, valves, or heat exchangers. A successful design of these materials requires an extensive study of their deformation and fracture characteristics at temperatures similar to the working ones.
