Synthesis of silicon carbide nanopowders in a two-jet plasma-chemical reactor

Аннотация

Results of experimental studies on production of nanostructured silicon carbide powders in a plasma-chemical reactor based on a two-jet plasmatorch are presented. The conditions of SiC formation as a function of temperature and composition of the initial components are determined by thermodynamic calculations. Possibility of silicon carbide synthesis with the size of particles of 5−20 nm is shown experimentally.
