Abstract
New Constant Rate Thermal Analysis (CRTA) equipment has been developed that permits the synthesis of SiC from carbothermal reduction of sili ca under both constant reaction rate and constant partial pressure of the CO generated in the reaction. It has been suggested that this meth od improves the formation of whiskers.
