Synthesis of high purity -SiC and -Si3N4 from rice hulls

Silicon carbide and silicon nitride were synthesized from ashes obtained by heating rice hulls at 800ºC for 3 hours in argon. -SiC was produced from the ashes by reheating them at 1400ºC for 8 hours in argon, whereas -Si3N4 was obtained by heating the ashes at temperatures ranging from 1250 to 1400º...
