Fundamental Understanding and Functionality of Silicon Oxycarbide
Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) is a unique polymer-derived ceramic (PDC) containing silicon, oxygen, and carbon atoms in the form of an amorphous network structure. The phase separation of SiOC is determined by polymeric precursors, pyrolysis temperatures, and atmosphere, which results in different …

Study of Pore Development in Silicon Oxycarbide Ceramics to Understand the Microstructural Evolution
Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) is a ceramic obtained through the heating of a polymer precursor, which undergoes partial decomposition to go from an organic polymer to an inorganic ceramic. The microstructure of SiOC is not uniform at the nanometer scale, and contains nanometer sized silicon dioxide, …

Synthesis and indentation of boride and carbide coated carbon nanotube composite microstructures
… elasto-capillary imbibition and pyrolysis of a silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) polymer derived ceramic leading to coating thickness from 8 nm to full infiltration. Both coatings enable the infiltration of CNT pillars and lead to a significant increase in stiffness and strength. Nanoindentation tests …

Structural Characterization and Material Property Evaluation in Polymer-Derived SiOC Ceramics and Ceramic Nanocomposites
… ceramics (PDCs) and specifically polymer-derived silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) are a promising and attractive material class to accommodate the need for novel ceramics with tailorable compositions and material properties. SiOC is a unique member of the PDC family as the polymer precursor route is the …

Ceramic nanostructures for block copolymers
… temperature technique. To accomplish this, a silicon containing block copolymer system was used where upon exposure to an oxidation process the material undergoes two steps 1) the selective removal of the hydrocarbon block and 2) the formation of a ceramic from the inorganic containing block, …
