N2 - Porous h-BN/Si3N4 composite ceramics with different h-BN contents (5vol.%, 10vol% and 15vol.%) have been fabricated by gel casting. Sintering was carried out at 1750°C for 1h under a 0.1MPa nitrogen atmosphere. For comparison, porous Si3N4 ceramic was also prepared following the same route. The h-BN content has strong influence on the rheological behaviors of the suspensions, and the slurry has a suitable viscosity when h-BN content is lower than 10vol.%. Effects of h-BN content on the microstructure, mechanical properties, dielectric properties and thermal shock resistance of h-BN/Si3N4 composite ceramics were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies showed that h-BN particles homogeneously scattered in the β-Si 3N4 matrix, and the porous h-BN/Si3N4 composite ceramics show a superiorly comprehensive performance compared with porous Si3N4. For the 10vol.%h-BN/Si3N4 composite ceramics with a porosity of 49.4%, the flexural strength of 106.6MPa,dielectric constant of about 3.8 and a tangent loss of (3∼7) ×10-3 indicating that it could be one of the most ideal candidates for wave-transparent applications.
