Abstract
This chapter presents phase diagrams of many SiC–MxXy systems. The MxXy stand for one or more compounds of oxides or non-oxides, such as rare earth oxides, Si3N4, and Al4C3. Due to chemical inertness, SiC seldomly reacts with other compounds. However, compatibility of SiC with neighboring phases, especially the phase relations in SiC–Al2O3–R2O3 and SiC–Si3N4–R2O3 systems, is of particular importance for compositional design and sintering of SiC ceramics.
