メカニカルシール、釣ガイドリング等としてＳａｃ焼結
体を用いる場合、寸法精度、面粗度が高度に要求される
ため、焼結のままでは使用が困難であり、研削、研磨ま
たはバレル仕上げ等の加工が必要である。When using Sac sintered bodies for mechanical seals, fishing guide rings, etc., a high level of dimensional accuracy and surface roughness is required, so it is difficult to use them as they are sintered, and processing such as grinding, polishing, or barrel finishing is difficult. is necessary.

ＳｉＣ製品を提供するものである。As a result of extensive research to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention has been developed by covering a ground or polished SiC sintered body with graphite powder and heating it in a vacuum or inert gas at a temperature of 1800 to 2150°C for more than 1 hour. The present invention provides SiC products such as mechanical seals and fishing guide rings that have improved impact resistance using a method of sintering SiC sintered bodies that is sintered once again in an atmosphere.

In order to prevent the crystal size of C from growing and the strength from decreasing, the resintering treatment conditions are sintering at a temperature range of 1800 to 2150° C. for 1 hour or more. 1800℃
If it is less than that, the micro cracks will not be filled.
２１５０℃を越えるとＳｉＣの結晶サイズが粗大化し。When the temperature exceeds 2150°C, the crystal size of SiC becomes coarse.

ーの浪費につながる。The resintering treatment time is preferably from 1 to 8 hours, and if it is less than 1 hour, the filling of microcracks is insufficient, and if it exceeds 8 hours, it generally results in wasted sintering energy.
再焼結処理の雰囲気は、通常のＳｉＣの焼結と同様に真
空または不活性ガス雰囲気の必要がある。The atmosphere for the resintering process needs to be a vacuum or an inert gas atmosphere, as in normal SiC sintering.

かに加圧状態にすることが必要である。In the temperature range of resintering process, the degree of vacuum is lX10=Torr
In the case of an inert gas atmosphere, it is necessary to slightly pressurize the SiC sintered body to prevent oxidation of the SiC sintered body due to air flowing into the sintering furnace.

を図る事が出来る。The resintering treatment of the SiC sintered body of the present invention fills in the microcracks that occur during processing, thereby preventing damage due to chipping, cracking, etc., and deterioration of impact resistance and thermal shock resistance. It is possible to improve the strength.

保たれるのである。The covering carbon powder may be of any material as long as it does not react with the SiC sintered body, and graphite, carbon black, etc. are preferable.By covering with carbon powder, the surface of the SiC sintered body is smoothed to prevent SiC from decomposing under a slight partial pressure. This will keep the surface shiny.
