Abstract
- Synthesis of SiC powder in a 15 kW d.c. plasma reactor by using the reaction systems of SiCl<subscript>4</subscript>+CH<subscript>4</subscript> and CH<subscript>3</subscript>SiCl<subscript>3</subscript>+CH<subscript>4</subscript> was studied. The powder produced was characterized by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). Specific surface area was determined by the BET method using a sorptograph. The oxygen content was analysed by thermogravimetric method. Powder characteristics with respect to plasma conditions were analysed. The SiC powder generated was sintered in the presence of boron and carbide.
