Abstract

Ultrafine preceramic Si/C/N composite powders have been prepared from hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) by laser-induced gas phase reaction, using a new kind of tworeaction-zone reactor which could efficiently increase laser efficiency and production yield compared with a one-reaction-zone reactor. The as-formed products were nanosized (50–80 nm), amorphous powders containing Si–C and Si–N bonds homogeneously mixed with some excess carbon. The production yield was in the range of 88–120 g/h. Changes of chemical composition and crystallization of the powders during heat treatment at 1350 and 1550 °C under nitrogen for 1 h were studied.
