Effect of Temperature and Carbon Contents on the Synthesis of β-SiC from Silicon Sludge by Direct Carbonization Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

β-SiC powder was synthesized using silicon sludge from photovoltaic silicon-wafer production by varying heat treatment temperature and carbon contents. The synthesized β-SiC powder and silicon sludge was analyzed by XRD, SEM, FT-IR and Particle size analysis. It is known that the conversion of SiC from the mixture of Silicon and Carbon is mainly affected by the mole ratio of C/Si and heat treatment temperature. In this study, the influence of reaction temperature and carbon contents on the synthesis of β-SiC from silicon sludge was examined.
