Preliminary investigation of flash sintering of SiC

The feasibility of flash sintering a covalent ceramic, SiC, has been investigated for the first time. Flash sintering involves the application of an electrical potential difference across a powder compact during heating, which leads to sintering at low furnace temperatures in a few seconds and has o...
