Here we report on bulk Si–Al–O–C ceramics produced by pyrolysis of commercial poly
(methylsilsesquioxane) precursors. Prior to the pyrolysis the precursors were cross-linked …

Polymer‐derived SiOC/HfO2 ceramic nanocomposites were prepared via chemical
modification of a commercially available polysilsesquioxane by hafnium tetra (n‐butoxide) …

The main objective of this paper is to attempt to determine the structure of free carbon phase
in SiOC glasses derived from ladder-like silsesquioxane precursors. The samples were fired …

Filler up! Composite proton‐conducting membranes, based on polybenzimidazole (PBI) and
imidazole‐derivatized silica are presented. The addition of even small amounts (∼ 10 wt%) …

Silicon oxycarbides are promising anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. In this study, we
used the continuous MicroJet reactor technique to produce organically modified silica …

The pyrolysis behavior of polysiloxane liquids in transformation to shaped ceramic bodies
has been studied through liquid casting, crosslinking, and pyrolysis. The control of …

Mechanical properties of partially pyrolyzed at 650° C or 750° C unidirectional basalt fibre
composites with polysiloxane matrix were studied at laboratory and elevated temperatures …

Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) ceramics have been used to fabricate microwave-absorbing
metastructures, demonstrating impressive absorption capabilities. However, SiOC ceramic …

Black glasses are amorphous materials based on silicon oxycarbide. The use of precursors
in the form of ladder‐like silsesquioxanes enables the control of the amount of carbon ions …

Oxycarbides were produced by pyrolysis of polysiloxanes with different contents of
methyl/phenyl groups at 1000° C under nitrogen atmosphere. The structure of the three …
