Abstract
Pressureless sintered SiC specimens were joined using MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 (MAS) filler. MAS filler showed excellent behaviour of wetting on SiC substrate above 1480 °C, and the wettability was much influenced by the joining atmosphere. The joining was carried out at 1500 and 1600 °C for 30 min in Ar atmosphere. The flexural strength of the joined specimen showed 342–380 MPa up to 800 °C. However, the flexural strength of the joined specimen decreased to about 80 MPa at 900 °C due to softening of the joint interlayer. The results of the XRD and WDS showed that the reaction between SiC and the MAS filler produced the oxycarbide glass.
