Abstract
Abstract A new single-phased thermosetting resin (propargyloligosilazane, POSZ) was prepared through Hofmann alkylation of oligosilazane with propargylbromide; the propargyl content in POSZ was controlled by monitoring the amount of propargylbromide in synthesis. The characterizations showed that POSZ has ideal rheology during material processing, the thermal curing temperature could be lowered when isocyanate was used as crosslinking agent, and the thermally cured POSZ can be pyrolyzed into anti-oxidative ceramic at a high yield of >70%. For POSZ-matrixed carbon-fabric laminate composite, it possessed high mechanical properties and retained the original shape with the increase of temperature as high as 800 °C. The POSZ-matrixed laminate has the mechanical properties combining polymer character at room temperature and ceramic character at high temperature, and it will find many prospective high temperature applications in need of polymer and ceramic properties simultaneously.
