To reduce the lattice oxygen content of Si 3 N 4 green bodies, samples were prepared using an N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMAA) system. The endothermic and exothermic peaks are related to the decomposition of organic matter and the reaction between pyrolytic carbon and impurity oxides in the sintering process. Multi-step heat preservation during the thermal degreasing process reduced the carbon content and defects. The α→β phase transformation and aspect ratio of grains changed from 89.2% to 4.84:1 at 1640 °C to 96.3% and 7.80:1 at 1700 °C, respectively. The relative density, hardness, fracture toughness, and thermal conductivity of the Si 3 N 4 samples reached 98.5%, 1353 HV, 8.51 MPa·m 1/2 , and 97.1 W·m −1 ·K −1 , respectively. Pyrolytic carbon can react with SiO 2 , which reduces the content of the glass phase in the green body and affects the dissolution and precipitation process and lattice oxygen content. In the structure of the Si 3 N 4 sample, carbon particles with sizes of 100–500 nm and near-spherical shapes were observed. Intergranular-phase YMgSi 2 O 5 N was formed during the sintering process, which was conducive to improving the thermal conductivity. This article uses lower temperature and no pressure conditions to prepare Si 3 N 4 ceramics, which can provide reference for batch and low-cost production.

Pyrogenic carbonaceous matter (PCM) catalyzes the transformation of a range of organic pollutants by sulfide in water; however, the mediation mechanisms are not fully understood. In this study, we observed for the first time that the degradation of azo dyes by sulfide initially underwent a lag phase followed by a fast degradation phase. Interestingly, the presence of PCM only reduced the lag phase length of the azo dye decolorization but did not significantly enhance the reaction rate in the fast degradation phase. An analysis of the azo dye reduction and polysulfide formation indicated that PCM facilitated the transformation of sulfide into polysulfides, including disulfide and trisulfide, resulting in fast azo dye reduction. Moreover, the oxygen functional groups of the PCM, especially the quinones, may play an important role in the transformation of sulfide into polysulfides by accelerating the electron transfer. The results of this study provide a better understanding of the PCM-mediated abiotic transformation of organic pollutants by sulfide in anaerobic aqueous environments.
