摘　　要：采用一种凝胶浇注成型预配液作为陶瓷粉体的分散介质,将亚微米级SiC粉体和烧结助剂Y2O3、Al2O3直接混合,制得了固含量>50vol％的凝胶浇注浆料,在100s-1的剪切速率下,浆料粘度<1Pa·s,可以顺利实现凝胶浇注成型;对得到的SiC素坯进行了无压烧结．在2000℃保温1h(氩气氛)的烧结条件下,烧结体相对密度为(98．1±0．2)％,抗折强度、硬度和韧性分别为(722±70)MPa、(20．18±0．75)GPa、(4．00±0．20)MPa·m1／2．Concentrated SiC slurry with Y2O3 and Al2O3 as sintering assistants was prepared, by using the medium of gelcasting premix solution and pH adjusting reagent of TMAH （tetramethylammonium hydroxide）. The measurements of Zeta potential, sedimentation and viscosity show that SiC, Y2O3 and Al2O3 can disperse well in premix solution at basic region. Rheological study clarifies that concentrated SiC gelcasting slurry has low viscosity and shear stress after adding 0.5wt% TMAH, which is suitable to cast into the mold. The green body formed by gelcasting was pressureless sintered at 2000℃ for lh. SEM image of SiC ceramic indicates that the structure of SiC sintered body is homogeneous and no obvious defects existing. The relative density, flexural strength, hardness and toughness of SiC sintered body are （98.1±0.2）%, （722±70）MPa, （20.18±0.75）GPa and （4.00±0.20）MPa.m^1/2, respectively.
