Hydrosilyl-modified polycarbosilane precursors for silicon carbide

摘要

A novel branched hydrosilyl-modified polycarbosilane which can be pyrolized to obtain improved yields of silicon carbide. This novel branched hydrosilyl-modified polycarbosilane can be prepared in a one-step reaction from mixtures of silane monomers containing vinyl or halomethyl moieties with silane monomers containing hydrosilyl groups.
