Effect of nitrogen gas pressure during heat treatment on the morphology of silicon nitride fibers synthesized by carbothermal nitridation

The effects of N2 gas pressure on the diameter and morphology of Si3N4 fibers obtained via carbothermal nitridation were investigated. Sol–gel-derived precursors containing a silica and carbon mixture were placed in an Al2O3 crucible and heat-treated under various N2 pressures from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa at...
