Abstract
Manufacturing of novel reaction bonded Niobium Carbide (NbC) containing ceramic composites derived from polymer/filler mixtures was investigated. Poly(methylsiloxane) filled with 40 vol.% of a mixture of metallic Niobium (Nb) (reactive filler) and alumina powder (inert filler) was pyrolysed in inert atmosphere up to 1450°C. During pyrolysis metallic niobium reacted with carbon from the decomposition products of the preceramic polymer binder to...
