摘要:
The disclosed materials, methods, and apparatus, provide novel ultra-high temperature materials (UHTM) in fibrous forms/structures; such “fibrous materials” can take various forms, such as individual filaments, short-shaped fiber, tows, ropes, wools, textiles, lattices, nano/microstructures, mesostructured materials, and sponge-like materials. At least four important classes of UHTM materials are disclosed in this invention: (1) carbon, doped-carbon and carbon alloy materials, (2) materials within the boron-carbon-nitride-X system, (3) materials within the silicon-carbon-nitride-X system, and (4) highly-refractory materials within the tantalum-hafnium-carbon-nitride-X and tantalum-hafnium-carbon-boron-nitride-X system. All of these material classes offer compounds/mixtures that melt or sublime at temperatures above 1800° C.—and in some cases are among the highest melting point materials known (exceeding 3000° C.). In many embodiments, the synthesis/fabrication is from gaseous, solid, semi-solid, liquid, critical, and supercritical precursor mixtures using one or more low molar mass precursor(s), in combination with one or more high molar mass precursor(s). Methods for controlling the growth, composition, and structures of UHTM materials through control of the thermal diffusion region are disclosed.
摘要:
A method for producing a polysilane includes a disproportionation reaction of a methylchlorodisilane mixture to form chlorine-containing oligosilane, a substitution reaction of the chlorine atoms contained in the oligosilane by the reaction with a primary amine and a cross-linking reaction of the oligosilanes using a chain former to form polysilanes. The obtained polysilanes are infusible and are very suitable for being spun to form green fibers and processed to form silicon carbide fibers and fiber composites. The method is characterized in that it can be carried out cost-effectively and quickly and with very high yields.

The boron-11 compound may be a boron-11 isotope of boron oxide, boron hydride, boron hydroxide, boron carbide, boron nitride, boron trichloride, boron trifluoride, boron metal, or mixtures thereof. A material for use in a nuclear reactor component is also disclosed, as are such components, as well as a method of producing the material.
摘要:
This invention presents a process to produce bulk quantities of nanowires of a variety of semiconductor materials. Large liquid gallium drops are used as sinks for the gas phase solute, generated in-situ facilitated by microwave plasma. To grow silicon nanowires for example, a silicon substrate covered with gallium droplets is exposed to a microwave plasma containing atomic hydrogen. A range of process parameters such as microwave power, pressure, inlet gas phase composition, were used to synthesize silicon nanowires as small as 4 nm (nanometers) in diameter and several micrometers long. As opposed to the present technology, the instant technique does not require creation of quantum sized liquid metal droplets to synthesize nanowires. In addition, it offers advantages such as lower growth temperature, better control over size and size distribution, better control over the composition and purity of the nanowires.

摘要:
Composite ceramic materials and a method of the same are disclosed, in which a ceramic material mainly containing silicon nitride, and at least one compound selected from a group consisting of nitrides, carbides, borides, silicides, oxides and oxynitrides of elements belonging to IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IBb, Va, VIa and VIII are combined to form a sintered body, and particles and whiskers of the ceramic material and compound are interlocked with each other and fixed so that the sintered body has a porosity of 5 to 30%. In the above composite ceramics, the particle of the compound are coupled with each other through the whisker or particle of the ceramic material. Accordingly, the composite ceramics are small in charge rate of size due to sintering, and are excellent in tenacity, heat resisting property and thermal shock resisting property. Further, the resistivity of the sintered body can be varied by changing the mixture ratio of ceramic material and compound.

Disclosed herein is a method of manufacturing inorganic hollow yarns, such as cermets, oxide-non oxide composites, poorly sinterable non-oxides, and the like, at low costs. The method includes preparing a composition comprising a self-propagating high temperature reactant, a polymer and a dispersant, wet-spinning the composition through a spinneret to form wet-spun yarns, washing and drying the wet-spun yarns to form polymer-self propagating high temperature reactant hollow yarns, and heat-treating the polymer-self propagating high temperature reactant hollow yarns to remove a polymeric component from the polymer-self propagating high temperature reactant hollow yarns while inducing self-propagating high temperature reaction of the self-propagating high temperature reactant to form inorganic hollow yarns. The composition comprises 45˜60 wt % of the self-propagating high temperature reactant, 6˜17 wt % of the polymer, 0.1˜4 wt % of the dispersant, and the balance of an organic solvent.
