  • Publication number: 20030087748
    Abstract: A long-lived cleaning vessel for ultrasonic cleaning is provided which is easily manufactured and is also easy to handle due to a simple structure thereof, and has excellent durability, mechanical strength, and corrosion resistance. A cleaning vessel 1 of the present invention includes a layer of silicon carbide sintered body 3 which propagates ultrasonic waves. Further, a silicon carbide sintered body is provided which can be applied to components for semiconductor production apparatuses, components for electronic information equipment, and various structural components for vacuum devices and the like, and which can particularly suitably be used as an ultrasonic resonance plate or an ultrasonic diaphragm, and can be easily processed, and further which can be made thinner while maintaining sufficient mechanical strength. The silicon carbide sintered body can propagate ultrasonic waves and an acoustic velocity of ultrasonic waves propagated therethrough is 4000 to 20000 m/s.
