Abstract

Mullite bonded silicon carbide porous ceramic has been fabricated by differentiate the sintering period to investigate the effect to the flexural strength and also the other properties such as water absorption, apparent porosity, apparent specific gravity and bulk density. In this case, three main materials have been used which are silicon carbide and alumina while graphite has been used as pore former. Apart of that, the phase of the mullite bonded silicon carbide porous ceramic has been analyzed and its microstructure also has been observed to confirm the existing of the mullite bonding at temperature 1450 °C. From the Archimedes test that has been conducted, the percentage of water absorption and apparent porosity have been decreased with the increasing of the sintering period while the apparent specific gravity and bulk density have been increased with the increasing of the sintering period. The flexural strength which is done by three point bending test found that the flexural strength has been increased with the increasing of the sintering period. From the phase analysis and the microstructure observation, it has been proved that the mullite bonding was existed. The optimum sintering time that have been chosen is 12 hours sintering period base on the flexural strength result.
