The densification process of liquid phase sintered SiC ceramics with Al2O3 and Y2O3 as sintering additives was investigated by in situ measurement apparatus combined with conventional methods. The shrinkage curve, mor- phology of the sample and liquid phase formation process simulation were observed by high temperature in-situ ob- servation furnace. The relative density, flexural strength and microstructure evolution were characterized by analysis of samples sintered at temperatures ranging from 1640℃ to 1920℃ at 40℃ interval. The obvious temperature that liquid phase began to function was confirmed between 1640℃ to 1680℃. The classical liquid phase sintering theory was testified. Highly-densified SiC ceramics were obtained by being sintered at 1880℃, of which the relative density was (99.46 ± 0.37)%, and the flexural strength was (650 ± 26) MPa.
