Highly porous Si3N4with macroscopically aligned pores were prepared by the unidirectional freeze casting process using liquid N2as refrigerant. The increased sintering temperature had no obvious influence on the porosity, but significantly promoted α→β-Si3N4phase transformation and the growth of fibrous β-Si3N4grains, and changed the pore structure. The flexural strength and fracture toughness of the sample sintered at 1900°C could reach 73MPa and 1.1MPam1/2, respectively.
