Global InformationOxonitridosilicate information
The oxonitridosilicates, also called sions (Si + O + N) or silicon-oxynitrides are inorganic ceramic compounds in which oxygen and nitrogen atoms are bound to a silicon atom.[1] A common variant also has aluminium replacing some silicon. They can be considered as silicates in which nitrogen partially replaces oxygen, or as nitridosilicates with oxygen partly replacing nitrogen.
