Abstract

A series of alumina particles coated with inorganic polymers, that have utility as preceramic dispersants, have been pyrolyzed and the products of the pyrolysis studied to help determine the possible decomposition routes. The inorganic polymers, bis(amino)polyphosphazenes and siloxanes, appear to undergo loss of the organic sidechains via a nucleophilic process which would incorporate inorganic backbone into the alumina matrix. The bis(alkoxy)polyphosphazenes decompose by nucleophilic attachment but also exhibit polymer loss by formation of cyclic oligomers.
