摘要
In order to fabricate porous ceramics with good properties and proper production cost,SiC-Al2 O3 porous ceramics were prepared at 1 450 ℃ for 2 h from the powders of commercial silicon carbide and white fused corundum via a polymeric replication method. Effects of the mass ratio of SiC powder to white fused corundum powder（ 1 ∶ 3,1 ∶ 1 and 3 ∶ 1） on the appearance,phase composition,sintering properties and thermal shock resistance were investigated. The research results indicate that the as-prepared Si C-Al2 O3 porous ceramics have uniform pores,and their linear shrinkage ratio,apparent porosity and bulk density reach 4. 70%,67. 17%and 0. 83 g·cm-3,respectively. The thermal shock cycles from 1 400 ℃ to room temperature reach 23 including 15 cycles in air cooling condition and then 8 cycles in water cooling condition. Their main phases areα-Al2 O3 and Al6 Si2 O13 as well as a small amount of SiC and free SiO2. The as-prepared porous ceramic with the ratio of m（ SiC） ∶ m（ Al2 O3） = 1∶ 1 possesses prior comprehensive properties.
