摘要 |
Fibers having reduced surface roughness have a continuous coating of a silicone resin that undergoes pyrolysis in hydrogen or helium to form a hard, amorphous solid coat containing silicon, oxygen, and carbon. This silicon oxycarbide glass coating has exceptional high temperature strength and chemical stability compared to even vitreous silica. The coating is resistant to crystallization and oxidation at temperatures above 1000 DEG C.
