Abstract
Exemplary silicon carbide ceramic bodies having inclusions therein are produced according to the invention. An exemplary ceramic body includes silicon carbide in major amounts and unreacted particles of an additive in minor amounts which are bonded to the matrix. The particles are dispersed throughout the silicon carbide, and are preferably selected from one or more of the group consisting of boron nitride, aluminum nitride and titanium diboride.
