EN 12698-2:2007 (E) 4 1 Scope This standard describes methods for the determination of mineralogical phases typically apparent in nitride and oxy-nitride bonded silicon carbide refractory products using a Bragg-Brentano diffractometer.
It includes details of sample preparation and general principles for qualitative and quantitative analysis of mineralogical phase composition. Quantitative determination of α-Si3N4, β-Si3N4, Si2ON2, AlN, and SiAlON are described. NOTE For the refinement procedures the total nitrogen content, analysed in accordance with EN 12698-1 is needed. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 12475-4:1998, Classification of dense shaped refractory products — Part 4: Special products EN 12698-1, Chemical analysis of nitride bonded silicon carbide refractories — Part 1: Chemical methods ISO 836:2001, Terminology for refractories ISO 5022, Shaped refractory products — Sampling and acceptance testing ISO 8656-1, Refractory products — Sampling of raw materials and unshaped products — Part 1: Sampling scheme 3 Definitions For the purposes of this document the terms and definitions given in ISO 836:2001, EN 12475-4:1998 and the following apply.
3.1 nitride and oxynitride bonded silicon carbide refractories
refractory products predominantly consisting of silicon carbide with minor amounts of nitride phases as a matrix component NOTE
In general, metallic silicon is used as a precursor material, which undergoes a phase transformation in
an oxygen-free nitrogen atmosphere. 4 Apparatus
Bragg-Brentano diffractometers with a copper X-ray tube, graphite monochromator and scintillation counter and the following experimental setting for data collection are used:  goniometer with a measurement uncertainty of ≤ 0,5 ° at a confidence level of 95 %;  primary soller slit with a divergence
≤ 2,5 °;  divergence slit 1 °;  receiving slit ≤ 0,2
mm;



EN 12698-2:2007 (E) 5  scatter slit ≤ 1 °;  narrow line focus;  tube settings 40 kV and 20 mA to 45 mA. 5 Sampling Sample shaped and unshaped products using the procedures given in ISO 5022 and ISO 8656-1. When sampling large fragments, take care to collect samples from different points of individual pieces. Homogenize the sample by reducing the maximum particle size to 150 µm and take the test sample from this material. 6 Procedure 6.1 Sample preparation Grind the sample using a mill so that the resultant powder can pass through a 100 mesh sieve. NOTE Care should be taken not to grind the sample excessively as this has been found to cause the silicon nitride, and silicon phases in particular, to reduce in intensity. This is believed to be due to a build up of an amorphous layer on their particles due to damage induced by the silicon carbide. Press the powder into the cavity holder from the reverse side of the cavity to that which is to be presented to the x-ray beam (to reduce preferred orientation). The depth of the cavity shall be sufficient to exceed the critical depth of CuK. radiation for the sample analysed. 6.2 Measuring parameters Scan the sample on the instrument using the following parameters:  start angle, 2 10 °;  end angle, 2 70 °, 130 ° if β-SiAlON determination is required;  step-spec, 2
0,02 ° or continuous;  integration time 4 s. An additional scan using the same conditions as above between 60 ° and 70 ° 2 may be required if aluminium and/or iron is thought to be present. NOTE Parameters for tube settings should be: voltage 40 kV, excitation current 20 mA to 45 mA. 6.3 Qualitative analysis Use an automatic or manual search to identify different phases in accordance with the ICDD, JCPDS and ASTM databases. NOTE 1 A deconvolution program should be used for overlapping peaks.



EN 12698-2:2007 (E) 6 NOTE 2 The following phases are commonly found in nitride bonded silicon carbide: α-SiC, β-SiC, α-Si3N4, β-Si3N4, Si (free), Si2ON2, SiO2 (cristobalite), FeSi2 and WC (from grinding). Less common phases include: FeSi, Fe, Al, AlN, C (graphite), SiO2 (quartz), SiAlON. Some potential line overlaps to be aware of include the (111) cristobalite at 28,4 ° with the (111) silicon and the (110) iron at 44,7 ° with the (200) aluminium, there is also an interference of monoclinic zirconia on silicon. 6.4 Quantitative analysis 6.4.1 General For quantitative analysis the net peak intensities of the test sample are compared to a sample of known concentration. The intensities shall be evaluated by measuring the peak height or preferably the peak area. For the determin
