Investigation of the properties of SiC membrane on alumina by using polycarbosilane

The effects of adding nano‐alumina filler on the properties of polymer‐derived SiC coating

“…The synthesis and characterization of SiC thin films and coatings by the pyrolysis of PCS have been widely done in the recent years. 41,42 The performance of the alumina substrate can be improved by applying the SiC coating for applications such as hybrid ICs, thermal dissipation layers, and aero-engine spark plugs. 43 The present research is the first report to investigate the effect of adding nano-alumina to the PCS solution on the mechanical and electrical properties of the polymer precursorderived SiC coating on the alumina substrate.…”

“…It is also well known that alumina can act as a sintering aid for SiC ceramics 39,40 ; therefore, it is interesting to investigate the properties of these materials as a coating. The synthesis and characterization of SiC thin films and coatings by the pyrolysis of PCS have been widely done in the recent years 41,42 . The performance of the alumina substrate can be improved by applying the SiC coating for applications such as hybrid ICs, thermal dissipation layers, and aero‐engine spark plugs 43 …”

On the Use of Porous and Nonporous Fillers in the Fabrication of Silicon Carbide Membranes

“…This has then necessitated the study of other materials. A different type of hydrogen permselective microporous membrane which shows promise in overcoming some of these challenges is made of materials with an −[Si–C]– backbone. − …”
