Title: Method for improving the toughness of silicon carbide-based ceramics

Abstract

Method of improving the toughness of SiC-based ceramics. SiC, , AlN, Al.sub.2 O.sub.3 and optionally .alpha.-Si.sub.3 N.sub.4 are hot pressed to form a material which includes AlN polytypoids within its structure.
