摘要
In this paper,we reported a novel method for synthesis of non-oxide porous ceramics by using random copolymers as precursors.A silazane oligomer and styrene monomer were used as starting materials,which were copolymerized at 120 ℃ to form random polysilazane-polystyrene copolymers.The copolymers were then pyrolyzed at 500 ℃ to obtain porous ceramics by completely decomposing polystyrene(PS) and converting polysilazane(PSZ) into non-oxide Si-C-N ceramics.The obtained material contained a bi-model pore-structure consisting of both micro-sized and nano-sized pores with very high surface area of more than500 m;/g.We also demonstrated that the pore structure and surface area of the materials can be tailored by changing the ratio of the two blocks.Current results suggest a promising simple method for making multiscaled porous non-oxide materials.
