MoSi2 Ceramic Foam Prepared by Polymer Pyrolysis

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ceramic foams containing MoSi2 were prepared by a self-blowing process of poly-silsesquioxane with MoSi2 as filler. Ceramic foams prepared by polymer pyrolysis were composed of MoSi2 and silicon oxycarbide glass matrix. Densities, pore sizes and mechanical properties of ceramic foams were depended on the filler content and heating rate for curing of polymer. Depending on the foaming condition, ceramic foams with a density of 1.2∼0.4 and a compressive strength of 3∼30 MPa were obtained.
