Silicon oxynitride stability.
Silicon oxynitride occurs as a mineral (sinoite) in meteorites. Equilibrium measurements are reported which provide information on the approximate ratios of pressures of oxygen to nitrogen required for existence of this phase under equilibrium conditions at elevated temperatures. This ratio is approximately 10-(15) at 1400 degrees to 1500 degrees C.
