The hot hardness of polycrystalline single‐phase α‐ or β‐ sialon ceramics declines with increasing temperature, but the measured Vickers hardness (HV1) at 1100°C is still about 1550 and 1300 for the α‐sialon and the low‐substituted β‐sialon materials, respectively. The hardness of ‘composite’β‐ or α‐β‐sialon ceramics containing a high volume fraction of glassy phase is lower at all temperatures and drops significantly above about 900°C.
