Abstract: To explore the reuse of iron tailings,the porous silicon carbide ceramic materials were prepared by carbothermal reduction with iron tailings and anthracite as raw materials.The effects of the molar ratio of C to SiO₂ (3∶1,4∶1,5∶1 and 6∶1) and the heat treatment temperature (1 200,1 300,1 400 and 1 500 ℃) on the microstructure,mechanical properties,and thermal conductivity of the porous silicon carbide ceramic materials were studied.The results show that the main crystalline phase of the porous silicon carbide ceramic materials is β-SiC,and the secondary crystalline phases are Fe₅Si₃ and Fe₃Si;with the increasing heat treatment temperature and the molar ratio of C to SiO₂,the carbothermal reduction reaction tends to be complete,the β-SiC content increases gradually,the bulk density and cold compressive strength decrease,the apparent porosity increases and the thermal conductivity decreases.When the heat treatment temperature is 1 500 ℃ and the molar ratio of C to SiO₂ is 6∶1,the optimal properties can be achieved:the bulk density of 1.25 g·cm^-3,the apparent porosity of 62.3%,the cold compressive strength of 35.0 MPa,and the thermal conductivity of 0.150 W·m^-1·K^-1 at 800 ℃.
