Rice hull-derived silica: applications in Portland cement and mullite whiskers
Materials Research, 2000 Silica was extracted from rice hulls by three processing routes, starting with acid treatment followed by burning and milling. The amorphous white silica powder showed a surface area of 260 to 480 m²/g, purity above 99% and average particle size of 2.0 ...

Oxidation of SiC-Whisker/Mullite Composites in Dry Air
Journal of the Ceramic Society of Japan, 1989 Oxidation behavior of mullite composites containing 10 to 30vol% of SiC-whisker (SiC-w) has been studied at 1300°C in dry air. As the volume fraction of SiC-w increased, the weight gain increased. The weight gain curve obeyed the parabolic law for the SiC-w content of 10vol% and at the oxidation time shorter than 200h.
