Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the pyrolytic conversion of a novel commercial polysilazane, poly(ureamethylvinyl)silazane (PUMVS; Ceraset™, Allied Signal Composites Inc., USA), into silicon-based ceramics. The precursor was thermally cross-linked and pyrolyzed between 200 and 1700 °C under argon or nitrogen atmosphere and the products were investigated by spectroscopic techniques (FTIR and Raman spectroscopy, solid-state NMR), elemental analysis and simultaneous thermal analysis coupled with mass spectrometry. Upon heating under argon, the starting liquid precursor transformed into an infusible solid polymer at T > 250 °C with a conversion yield of >95 wt%. The cross-linking solidification occurred predominantly through hydrosilylation or addition reaction involving vinyl groups. Subsequent pyrolysis of the cross-linked products around 1000 °C in argon yielded amorphous silicon carbonitride ceramics with a composition of SiN0.82C0.86. The overall ceramic yield (with respect to the starting PUMVS) was around 70 wt%, which was found to be independent of the initial cross-linking step. Solid-state NMR (29Si and 13C) revealed that the amorphous silicon carbonitrides contain predominately CSiN3 units. There is evidence for the formation of free amorphous carbon between 700 and 800 °C. Graphitic phases were detected by X-ray diffraction in the samples heated to T > 1000 °C at high heating rates. Upon annealing at T > 1500 °C, the excess carbon reacted completely with the silicon (carbo)nitride to form SiC and nitrogen. The final ceramics contained a large amount of crystalline SiC (∼90 wt%), and were free of excess carbon or silicon. Therefore, PUMVS is an ideal precursor for the formation of high-quality SiC-based ceramics.
