Abstract
Disclosed are a silicon nitride ceramic sintered body and preparation method thereof. The silicon nitride ceramic sintered body includes a sintered bulk and a hard surface layer having a thickness of 10-1000 μm, formed on a surface of the sintered bulk, wherein the sintered bulk comprises a first silicon nitride crystalline phase and a first grain boundary phase; the hard surface layer comprises a second silicon nitride crystalline phase and a second grain boundary phase; the first grain boundary phase comprises a metal tungsten phase being tungsten elementary substance and/or a tungsten alloy; the second grain boundary phase comprises tungsten carbide particles; tungsten element in the metal tungsten phase accounts for 80-100 wt % of total tungsten element in the first grain boundary phase; and tungsten element in the tungsten carbide particles accounts for 60-100 wt % of total tungsten element in the second grain boundary phase.
