Abstract
The work presents the results of research on composite materials made of silicon-containing polymer-derived ceramic matrix composites (PDC-Cs) and nanocomposites (PDC-NCs). Carbon micro and nanofibers (CFs and CNFs) were used as reinforcements. The interactions between carbon micro and nanofibers and polysiloxane matrix, as well as interphase evolution mechanism in composite samples during their heating to 1000 °C were studied. CF/resin and CNF/resin composites were prepared via liquid precursor infiltration process of unidirectionally aligned fibers. After heating to 700 °C–800 °C, decomposition of the resin in the presence of CNFs led to the formation of fiber/organic-inorganic composites with pseudo-plastic properties and improved oxidation resistance compared to as-prepared fiber/resin composites. The most favourable mechanical properties and oxidation resistance were obtained for composites and nanocomposites containing the maximum amount of carbon nanoparticles precipitated in the SiOC matrix during the heat treatment at 800 °C. The precipitated carbon phase improves fiber/matrix adhesion of composites.
