Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A novel polycrystalline stoichiometric fine SiC fiber substantially free of impurities is produced using a novel pre-ceramic polymer. The pre-ceramic polymer is prepared by reacting a mixture of chlorodisilane, boron trichloride, and a vinyl chlorodisilane with an excess of hexamethyldisilazane to form the pre-ceramic polymer resin, which may then be melt-spun, cured, pyrolyzed and heat-treated to obtain the finished SiC fiber. The manufacturing process for the production of the fine SiC ceramic fiber allows for flexibility with respect to cross-linking, in that low-cost thermal treatments may replace more complex methods, while obtaining fibers with improved materials properties as compared to currently available SiC fibers.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: reacting a mixture of chlorodisilane (CDS), boron trichloride, and a vinyl chlorodisilane with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) to form a pre-ceramic polymer resin. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the mixture further comprises a compound selected from the group consisting of 1,1,3,3, tetraphenyldisilazane and 1,3 divinyltetramethyldisilazane, in the range of 5 to 35 percent by weight. 3. The metho…
