  • Method of making a composite silicon carbide
    Patent number: 7214342
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a silicon carbide composite body and includes the steps of forming a slurry including silicon carbide and a carbonaceous precursor, adding to the slurry composite granules containing a carbonaceous binder and carbon black, drying the slurry, shaping the dried slurry and sintering the dried and shaped slurry at a temperature of at least 2000° C. to form a body containing silicon carbide and non-graphitic carbon. The invention further relates to the composite body formed and the mixture prior to sintering.
    Type: Grant
