Description
This book contains the papers presented at the International Symposium on SiAlONs, held at Tomiura, Chiba, Japan, on December 2-4, 2001. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).The symposium provided a forum for researchers, from all over the world, to discuss recent developments in the theory and applications of SiAlON ceramics and composites.
The contents cover Phases and Phase Relationships, Synthesis of Powders and Ceramics, Microstructure Characterization, Properties and Applications and Glass and Glass-Ceramics The authors of the papers internationally acknowledged to be leading experts in SiAlON >materials, and >consequently offer valuable insights into current and future trends in the field.
