Influence of the substitution of Y2O3 for CeO2 on the mechanical and microstructural properties of silicon nitride Influência da substituição de Y2O3 por CeO2 nas propriedades mecânicas e microestruturais do nitreto de silício

This work investigated the substitution of Y2O3 for CeO2 in liquid-phase sintered silicon nitride ceramics. Cost reduction as well as good physical, mechanical and microstructural properties are the main objectives of the present study. Two powder mixtures were prepared, varying the contents of alph...
