Abstract

We report SiC ceramics sintered with AlN and Sc2O3 (or Lu2O3) that retain room temperature strength to 1500 °C. The intergranular glassy phase has not been observed in the ceramics due to a designed-sintering additive and, thus, the unsatisfactory effect of glassy phases on the high temperature strength is eliminated.
