Effects of various elemental additives on the electrical resistivity of hot‐pressed SiC ceramics were studied. The electrical resistivity at room temperature of dense SiC ceramics varied greatly depending on the additives used. SiC ceramics with added Be had an extremely high electrical resistivity of 3 × 10 12 °.cm. On the other hand, SiC ceramics with added B and Al had electrical resistivities of 2 × 10 and 0.8 °cm, respectively. The differences in the electrical resistivity of the dense SiC ceramics were considered to be due to different solubilities of the additives in SiC grains. SiC ceramics with added Be had a low level of impurities in the SiC grains as a result of the low solubility of Be in these grains.
