Abstract

Ceramics from chemically distinct preceramic polymers offer unique shaping and microstructural control but face challenges such as shrinkage, uncontrolled porosity, and pyrolysis-sensitive stoichiometry. The high-temperature potential of compositionally complex ceramics is further constrained by precursor scarcity and the low-throughput nature of pyrolysis. Here, we introduce short-chain preceramic precursors crosslinked with group IV–VI transition metals (Zr, Cr, V, Mo, Hf, W, Nb, etc.), which are compatible with additive manufacturing. We explored extrusion and ultrafast pyrolysis with multi-metal precursors to enable enhanced compositional complexity, lower processing temperatures, and rapid screening of oxidation-resistant ceramics. Through ultrafast electrical pyrolysis, these crosslinked precursors convert into dense, multi-phase ceramics in under a minute. The resulting materials exhibit homogeneous composition and oxidation resistance up to 1,873 K, offering a scalable route to protective coatings and bulk ceramics for extreme environments.

合成复杂陶瓷的热解预陶瓷前体
由化学性质不同的预陶瓷聚合物制成的陶瓷具有独特的形状和微观结构控制,但面临着诸如收缩、不受控制的孔隙率和热解敏感化学计量等挑战。前驱体的稀缺性和热解的低通量特性进一步限制了复合陶瓷的高温潜力。在这里,我们介绍了与IV-VI族过渡金属(Zr, Cr, V, Mo, Hf, W, Nb等)交联的短链预陶瓷前驱体,这些前驱体与增材制造兼容。我们探索了多金属前驱体的挤压和超快热解,以提高成分的复杂性,降低加工温度,并快速筛选抗氧化陶瓷。通过超快电热解,这些交联前体在一分钟内转化为致密的多相陶瓷。由此产生的材料具有均匀的成分和高达1873 K的抗氧化性,为极端环境的保护涂层和大块陶瓷提供了可扩展的途径。
