Fabrication of Mullite-Alumina-SiC Composites by In-Situ Reaction during Carbothermal Reduction of Inorganic Materials

Mullite and alumina are common in high-temperature applications because of their low thermal expansion coefficient and good thermal shock resistance. Evolution of SiC in the matrix and using it as reinforcing phase can improve thermo-mechanical properties of these materials. Also, in-situ formation...
