Effect of NaCl on Synthesis of Si-SiC Nanocomposites by Self Propagating High Temperature Synthesis

Article Preview

Abstract:

The Si-SiC nanocomposites have been synthesized by self-propagating high temperature synthesis (SHS) from natural precursors. The effects of difference amount of added NaCl from 0 to 0.75 moles to the reactants on the Si-SiC conversion and particle size were investigated. The reaction were carried out in a SHS reactor under static argon gas at the pressure of 0.5 MPa. The nanocomposite results have been characterized by scanning electron microscope, Transmission Electron Microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The results showed that the production of nano-composite materials using SHS process is feasible and agree well with the thermodynamics calculations.
