摘要:
A process for the preparation of preceramic metallopolysilanes is described. The process consists of reacting polysilanes with metallic compounds from which can be generated open coordination sites associated with the metallic element. Such open coordination sites can be generated by the reduction of the metallic compound with an alkali metal reducing agent, or by heating a metallic compound which has thermally labile ligands, or by the UV irradiation of a carbonyl-containing metallic compound. The metals which can be incorporated into the polysilane include aluminum, boron, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, titanium, zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium, and tantalum. These metallopolysilanes are useful, when fired at high temperatures, to form metal-containing ceramic materials.

Halogenated polycarbosilanes are prepared by reacting a polycarbosilane containing at least 0.1 weight percent Si-H groups with a halogenating reagent selected from the group consisting of chlorine, bromine, phosphorous pentachloride, phosphorous pentabromide, antimony pentachloride, N-chlorosuccinimide, N-bromosuccinimide, sulfonyl chloride, and mixtures of CH.sub.e X.sub.f and a free radical initiator where e is 0 or 1, f is 3 or 4, the sum (e+f) is 4, and X is chlorine or bromine. The halogenated polycarbosilanes can be further treated to produce other derivatized polycarbosilanes. The halogenated and derivatized polycarbosilanes can be converted to silicon carbide-containing ceramic materials by pyrolysis at elevated temperatures under an inert atmosphere.

This invention relates to the preparation of a highly densified boron carbide ceramic body by the pyrolysis of a mixture comprising boron carbide powder and a preceramic organosilicon polymer selected from the group consisting of polysiloxanes, polysilazanes, polysilanes, metallopolysiloxanes and metallopolysilanes. Such highly densified ceramic bodies can be prepared by sintering under pressure or by utilizing a pressureless process.

This invention relates to the preparation of highly densified ceramic bodies by the pyrolysis of a mixture comprising a preceramic borosiloxane, silicon carbide powder, a curing agent for the borosiloxane, a crosslinking agent for the borosiloxane and, optionally, additional components to facilitate sintering. Such highly densified ceramic bodies can be prepared by sintering under pressure or by a pressureless sintering process.

摘要:
An improvement in pre-ceramic methylpolysilanes that utilizes the reaction of methylpolysilanes with multiple-unsaturated compounds to reduce the number of ternary and highly reduced silicon atoms in the polymer matrix. Polymers thus modified are generally easier to process into ceramic fibers than prior art methylpolysilanes.

This invention provides polyorganooxothiazenes exhibiting levels of molecular weight and properties not heretofore achieved by similar polymers reported in the prior art. The sulfonimidates that are condensed to form the polymers are prepared using a novel reaction between an N-triorganosilylsulfonamide and a triorganodihalophosphorane to form the corresponding N-triorganosilylsulfonimidoyl halide that is subsequently reacted with a fluorinated alcohol or phenol to form the N-triorgano-silylsulfonimidate.
摘要:
A method is disclosed for the preparation of ceramic materials or articles by the pyrolysis of preceramic polysilanes wherein the preceramic polysilanes are rendered infusible prior to pyrolysis by exposure to ultraviolet irradiation in the presence of a reactive gas selected from the group consisting of ethylene, 1,3-butadiene, 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene, 1,4-pentadiene, silane, chlorosilane, dichlorosilane, boron trichloride, oxygen and water mixture, acetylene, and tetravinylsilane. This method is especially suited for the preparation of ceramic fibers. The ceramic fiber's surface properties can be modified by the practice of this invention; for example, a ceramic fiber with a carbon rich surface layer can be obtained when 1,3-butadiene is used as the reactive gas.

Polysilacyclobutasilazanes are reacted with chlorosilanes and/or chlorodisilanes and ammonia to provide silane-modified polysilacyclobutasilazanes having silacycles incorporated in the polymer, which silacycles are subsequently used to cross-link the silazanes.
