Abstract

Most of the metal alloys exposed to the flue gases of an Al-remelting furnace failed by corrosion. Therefore, the purpose of this work was to study the corrosion behaviour of SiC and of two types of Si₃N₄ exposed to this aggressive atmosphere. It was concluded that the liquid potassium aluminum silicate formed on surfaces causes corrosion which reduces mechanical strength of specimens.
