Abstract:Silicon carbide (SiC) formed through pyrolysis of preceramic polymers loaded with SiC particles has gained significant attention for applications such as coatings, composite matrix modifications, and most importantly additive manufacturing. This work presents combined synchrotron XRD, Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, nano-indentation, and Vickers indentation of pyrolysis bonded SiC to shed light on the changes of composition and mechanical properties of these materials. Characterization was pe… Show more
