PREPARATION AND PROPERTIES OF BULK CERAMICS VIA PYROLYSIS OF POLYCARBOSILANE WITH ACTIVE FILLERS II.FLEXURAL STRENGTH AND ANTI-OXIDATIVE PROPERTIES OF ACTIVE FILLER/PCS DERIVED BULK CERAMICS

摘要

The flexural strengths and oxidative resistant properties of the ceramics derived from polycarbosilane and active fillers (Ti, TiH 2, TiB 2, Cr, and CrSi 2) were measured and characterized. The introduction of active fillers enhances slightly the flexural strengths, and further densification is required to obtain higher strengths. The oxidative resistant behaviors of the specimens with active fillers are, by means of weight gain in air, poorer compared with those without active fillers.
