Abstract:In this work, three dimensional interconnected porous SiC ceramics were prepared via combining stirring-foaming and freeze-gelcasting. The obtained porous ceramics with tunable porous structure, uniform pore size distribution and multiply porous structure were fabricated successfully. The effect of PVA and stirring speed on porous structure and properties of SiC porous ceramics were investigated.The results showed that porous structure uniformity could be tuned by varying ω(PVA)/ω(SiC) , and until optimum when the values was 1.5. The porosity increased, 1st mode pore size and pore wall thickness decreased with the increasing of PVA content. The porous structure could be improved by increasing stirring speed. When stirring speed was 1600 r/min, the porosity and compressive strength were 88.42 % and 4.36 MPa, respectively.
