The sintering processes of Re-(α' + β')-sialon composites (Re=Sm, Dy, Yb) have been investigated by using a specially designed high temperature dilatometer. The initial densification of various samples starts at about 1200℃, and the maximum shrinkage rate of these sialon composites occurs at about 1500℃. The light rare earth sialon has a noticeably tower densification temperature and a higher final shrinkage. The sirtering kinetics of Re-(α' +β')-sialonare much more complex. The Kingery's liquid phase sintering model appears to be applicable,but the mechanism of mass transport in stage two appears to be changeable. The controlling factor shiffs from solution-precipitation to diffusion when densification process proceeds from the earlier part to the later part of this stage.
