Abstract

Si, NH$_4$Cl, NaN$_3$, NaCl, $N_2$ were used as raw materials for preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ powder. NH$_4$Cl and NaN$_3$ were used as additives, and NaCl was used as a diluent. Initial $N_2$ gas pressure in the SHS reactor was 60 atm. In preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$, the reactivity and the properties of the products were examined with the various kinds of additives and the content of diluent. At first, the optimum reaction system for the preparation of $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ is examined and then the optimum composition was examined in the optimum reaction system. The optimum reaction system was Si-$N_2$-additive(NH$_4$Cl+NaN$_3$)-diluent(NaCl) and the optimum composition was 38 wt%Si+50 wt%(NH$_4$Cl+NaN$_3$)+12 wt%NaCl. The maximum fraction of $\alpha$-phase of Si$_3$N$_4$ produced in this condition was 96.5 wt% and the shape of the $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ produced in this condition was an irregular fiber with a length of 10 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and a diameter of 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$.

원재료로서 Si, NH$_4$Cl, NaN$_3$, NaCl을 사용하고 SHS법을 이용하여 $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ 분말을 제조하였다. NH$_4$Cl과 NaN$_3$는 첨가제로서, NaCl은 희석제로서 사용되었고 반응기내 최초 $N_2$ 압력은 60 atm이었다. $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$분말을 제조함에 있어, 첨가제의 종류와 조성, 희석제의 첨가량에 따른 반응성 및 생성물의 특성을 조사하였는데, 우선 $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$ 분말의 제조를 위한 최적의 반응계를 조사하였고, 최적의 반응계에서 최적의 조성을 확립하였다. 최적의 반응계는 Si-$N_2$-additive(NH$_4$C+NaN$_3$)-diluent(NaCl)이었고, 이때 최적의 조성은 38wt%Si+22.5wt%NH$_4$Cl+27.5wt%NaN$_3$+l2wt%NaCl이었다. 이 조건에서 생성된 최고 $\alpha$-Si$_3$N$_4$의 분율은 96.5wt%이었으며 생성된 분말의 입형은 길이가 약 10 $mu extrm{m}$이고 직경이 약 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$인 일방향으로 길게 성장한 부정형의 fiber 형태였다.
