Abstract
An erosion resistant composite material is described comprising silicon nitride rod reinforced nickel alloy, where the silicon nitride is cold pressed and sintered and substantially nonreactive with the alloy at high temperatures. The silicon nitride can either be polycrystalline or amorphous containing alumina, 15% yttria and about 2% to about 5% silica. Three to 8% alumina is used in the case of polycrystalline silicon nitride and 2% to 6% alumina is used in the case of amorphous silicon nitride.
