The pyrolysis processing of polycarbosilane studied by TG, XRF, IR, XRD, and XPS
Key Engineering Materials(2012)
摘要
Polycarbosilane (PCS) is one of precursor systems applied in industry for the Polymer Infiltration Pyrolysis (PIP) processing of C or SiC fiber reinforced SiC matrix composites (C-f/SiC or SiCf/SiC CMC) materials. In this work, a series of PCS-derived SiC specimens treated at 300, 550, 800, and 1100 degrees C was studied by XRF, IR, XRD and XPS methods. The results show that a slight amount of PCS molecules with low softening point evaporates below 300 degrees C; the cross-link between PCS chains takes place to form a 3D -Si-C-Si- network via the reaction between -Si-CH3, -Si-CH2-Si- and -Si-H groups in the temperature range of 300-550 degrees C; an amorphous phase of SiC was observed when PCS was heated up to 800 degrees C, which indicates the completion of transformation from organic to inorganic; above 800 degrees C, beta-SiC domain grows. Furthermore, a surface structure evolution of PCS-derived SiC specimens with temperature is proposed after the analyzing the XPS spectra.
