Formation of Silicon Nitride Whiskers from Rice Hulls [Translated]†

The formation of Si3N4 whiskers from rice hulls was studied. Si3N4 whiskers were synthesized by nitridation of SiO2-C system in N2-gas flows at 1400 and 1450ºC. The shape and microstructure of the whiskers were SEM and TEM inspected. The...
