Abstract:
Ceramic fibers which are classified as oxide and non-oxide fibers are preferred to use in applications which are carried out at high temperature since they have high strength, low thermal expansion, corrosion, and oxidation resistance. Non-oxide fibers are generally produced using preceramic polymers by the spinning method. The production of ceramic materials using preceramic polymers by spinning method is more advantageous than other methods since the production of complex materials could be achieved at lower temperatures. The preceramic polymer family is basically classified as polysiloxane, polysilazane and polycarbosilane. In this thesis, it was aimed to obtain ceramic fiber in the most economical way. In this context, a spinning device was designed and made. Additionally, polysiloxane which is the most economical preceramic polymer was used to produce ceramic fiber. Polysiloxanes were spun by melt spinning. Obtained fibers were cured by different methods. As a result of pyrolysis, 65-130 μm thickness SiOC fibers were achieved.
