Syalon 201 – An Advanced Silicon Nitride Ceramic

Syalon 201, a silicon nitride based advanced ceramic, is a specially formulated grade based on the β-sialon phase found in Syalon 101 but with a crystalline intergranular phase of yttrium aluminium garnet (YAG). This enables Syalon 201 to exhibit significant retention of strength at high temperatures up to 1350°C.

The table below lists typical mechanical, thermal and electrical property data for Syalon 201.
