<p>A dense silicon carbide material having improved electrically conducting properties is disclosed which is prepared by forming a homogeneous dispersion of silicon carbide, a sufficient amount of a boron containing additive, and 3.5-10.0% by weight of silicon nitride and hot pressing the dispersion at a sufficient temperature and pressure whereby a dense substantially nonporous ceramic is formed. The silicon carbide material can be machined by electrical discharge machining or by electrochemical machining.</p> |
