Abstract

Mullite whiskers were synthesized by heating a mixture of SiO₂ and silicon in an alumina tube reactor under a flow of H₂ and CF₄. The length and diameter of the whiskers were several hundred micrometers and > 15 μm, respectively. It was postulated that a vapor phase reaction between SiF₄ and AlF₃ made possible the synthesis of the large mullite whiskers.
