Popis: Polycarbosilane was modified by reaction with an aluminum alkoxide to get a precursor for Si-Al-C-O ceramics. The precursor was essentially characterized by magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (29Si, 27Al, and 13C) and appeared as a dispersion of Al(OH)3-based particles in a polycarbosilane chain matrix. After the material was heat-treated under argon at 1500°C, X-ray diffraction showed that it crystallized mainly as SiC 2H. The presence of this rather unusual polytype for polycarbosilane-derived ceramics seemed to be related to the presence of aluminum atoms.
