Type: Ongoing advancements to improve the improvements in toughness and impact resistance of sintered silicon nitride
Hot-pressed silicon nitride(HPSN) involves the simultaneous application of heat and pressure to densify the silicon nitride powder. This method creates ceramics that possess high density and, consequently, excellent mechanical properties, such as high fracture toughness and flexural strength. The improved attributes make HPSN ideal for applications demanding high performance under stress, such as cutting tools, turbine blades, and bearings. Clients who require components with extreme precision and durability, often for use in aggressive environments, prefer HPSN. Reaction-bonded silicon nitride (RBSN) is formed by directly nitriding compacted silicon powder, which leads to a material with a lower density but excellent thermal shock resistance. RBSN is generally less expensive than other types due to its lower manufacturing temperatures and simplified process. It is well-suited for clients seeking cost-effective silicon nitride solutions that require thermal shock resistance and moderate mechanical properties. Sintered silicon nitride (SSN) varieties include both gas pressure sintered (GPSN) and regular pressureless sintered silicon nitride (SSN). These materials are characterized by their uniform microstructure and good balance between mechanical properties and thermal shock resistance. These varieties are well-suited to a broad range of applications, including mechanical seals, valve components, and die-casting plungers. Clients in search of a versatile material that balances performance with cost and that is readily shaped into complex geometries usually opt for SSN.
