Abrasive wear and particle degradation are
also said to be minimized. The stopper rod that seals
the ladle was made from O'Sialon, which is a silicon nitride and
silicon carbide composite ceramic with high thermal shock resistance and
excellent abrasive wear. For this purpose, the mechanisms involved
in abrasive wear will be presented in order to illustrate some
consequences of the polishing procedure on the reliability of
quantitative x-ray microanalyses. |
