摘要

SiOC glass monoliths possessing hierarchical porosity were produced by a one-pot processing method. Periodic mesoporous organosilica (PMO) particles were embedded into a foamed siloxane preceramic polymer. After pyrolysis at 1000 degrees C in inert atmosphere, open celled, permeable SiOC ceramic monoliths with a high amount of pores, ranging in size from hundred of micrometers to a few nanometers, were obtained. The components possessed a specific surface area of 137 m2/g, indicating the retention of most of the mesopores after the pyrolytic conversion of the PMO precursor particles. These fillers converted to truncated rhombic dodecahedral SiOC mesoporous micron-sized grains, homogeneously distributed throughout the SiOC cellular matrix. The produced porous ceramics possessed compression strength of about 1.7 MPa, which is adequate for their use in several engineering applications.
