    Synthesis of Poly(silyne-co-hydridocarbyne) for Silicon Carbide Production
    (Taylor & Francis Inc, 2013) Nur, Yusuf; Toppare, Levent
    Pre-ceramic polymers have previously been shown to be polymeric precursors to silicon carbide, diamond and diamond-like carbon. Here, we report the synthesis of a pre-ceramic polymer, poly(silyne-co-hydridocarbyne), which was electrochemically synthesized from one monomer containing both silicon and carbon in its structure. The polymer is soluble in common solvents such as CHCl3, CH2Cl2 and THF. Since the polymer contains both silyne and carbyne on its backbone, it can be easily converted to silicon carbide upon heating under an ambient inert atmosphere, or to SiO2 under ambient air atmosphere. Poly(silyne-co-hydridocarbyne) was characterized with UV/Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, H-1-NMR, GPC and Raman spectroscopy. Conversion of the polymer to SiC ceramic was accomplished by heating at 1000 and 750 degrees C under an argon atmosphere and characterized with optical microscopy, SEM, X-Ray and Raman spectroscopies.
