Abstract

Pure beta silicon carbide of submicron and micron particle size has been synthesized via carbothermal reduction of nanosilica. The resulted powder and its carbon-silica precursor were characterized by means of FTIR spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The results of TGA-DSC-MS analysis indicate a possibility to estimate by this technique the carbon content in carbon-silica precursor as well as residual carbon in silicon carbide with the sensitivity about 5 ppm.
