The effective linear elastic properties of silicon nitride (Si3N4) are estimated based on first–, third–, and fifth–order bounds of the strain energy density. This specific type of material is a mixture of two linear elastic materials with different material symmetries. The β‐Si3N4 grains have a hexagonal symmetry with significant amount of anisotropy, whereas the glassy phase is approximately isotropic. The results are as follows: i) The fifth–order upper and lower bounds are almost identical. Therefore, these bounds are sufficient for estimating the effective elastic properties. ii) For fixed elastic constants of the hexagonal β‐Si3N4 grains, the effective properties of Si3N4 are determined as a function of properties of the glassy phase and its volume fraction. The corresponding diagrams allow for the inverse identification of the elastic properties of the glassy phase. (© 2008 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
