α-SiAlON Grains with High Aspect Ratio—Utopia Or Reality?
Abstract It is generally accepted that β-sialon grains can occur in elongated shapes, but that α sialon can only form equi-axed grains. Unexpected evidence of the formation of elongated α-sialon grains was noticed in our recent work, however. The morphology of α-sialon grains was found to vary significantly with composition, and elongation occurred more frequently with certain rare earth dopants. Elongated α-sialon grains were obtained for the most oxygen-rich compositions, i. e. in samples where extended transient liquid formation occurs. In this presentation, we will discuss how the morphology of α-sialon grains varies with composition, with the type of rare earth dopant used, and with the processing parameters applied.
