Silicon carbides have wide application in many fields due to its thermal stability, high thermal conductivity, wide bandgap and excellent chemical stability,etc. However, the present methods for producing SiC have some disadvantages such as high synthesis temperature resulting large energy consummation, complicated technology, big equipment investment and high operating cost. On basis of technology that electrochemical reduction of SiO2 in molten salt at low temperature, and according to our preliminary results on the synthesis of SiC by molten salt electrochemistry method, we will explore the synthesis technology of micro/nano scale SiC by electrochemical reduction of the composite of C/SiO2.The effects of temperature of molten salt, electrode potential and composition of reactants on electrocehmical behavior of C/SiO2 composite will be studied in order to analyze thermodynamic route and dynamic process of SiC formation and then clear and understand the mechanism of electrochemical synthesis of SiC in molten salt at low temperature. Furthermore, by optimizing the thermodynamic and dynamic factors affecting the formation of SiC, the synthesis method of SiC by electrochemical reduction of C/SiO2 composite in molten salt at low temperature will be set up. The results will have not only important significance on the theoretical and technological development of low-temperature synthesis of SiC and energy conservation for producing SiC, but also supply the experimental and theoretical supports for synthesizing a variety of metal carbides by molten salt electrochemistry method.
