In this paper, 尾-Sialon ceramic was formed with pyrophyllite as raw material and coke as reductant by carbothermal reduction and nitridation in flowing nitrogen atmosphere. Then, the erosion wear property of 尾-Sialon ceramic was measured. When the pre-synthesized temperature was 1400 °C, the effects of carbon additions (with theoretical carbon addition and carbon in excess of 10–50 wt.%) on the phase compositions of the products were studied by X-ray diffraction. 尾-Sialon ceramic was sintered at 1600 °C, and its erosion wear behavior was examined with the use of a self-designed, liquid–solid, two-phase flow erosion equipment. Results show that the optimum carbon addition to fabricate the 尾-Sialon ceramic powders was in excess of 10 wt% at 1400 °C. Under these conditions, the pre-synthesized powders were composed of 尾-Sialon as the main crystalline phase and 尾-SiC as the secondary phase. The relationship between volume erosion amount per area of the specimens and erosion time can be explained by two exponential equations—螖V=−5.22t+10.4t and 螖V=−0.0062t+0.273t+4.884 in two stages.
