  • Patent number: 5030702
    Abstract: The invention relates to novel polysilazanes, their preparation, their further processing to ceramic material containing silicon nitride and this material itself. To prepare the polysilazanes, Si,Si'-diorganyl-N-alkyltetrachloro-disilazanes of the formula RSiCl.sub.2 -NR'-SiCl.sub.2 R are reacted with ammonia. The polysilazanes can then be pyrolyzed to ceramic material containing silicon nitride. The polysilazanes according to the invention dissolve in the customary aprotic solvents.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5011801
    Abstract: Polymeric ethylene-bridged chlorosilazanes, process for their preparation, ceramic materials which can be prepared from them containing silicon nitride, and their preparationThe invention relates to novel polymeric ethylene-bridged chlorosilazanes, their preparation, their further processing to a ceramic material containing silicon nitride, and this material itself. In order to prepare the polymeric chlorosilazanes, oligosilazanes of the formula (I) ##STR1## are reacted with at least one of the chlorosilanes ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 to R.sup.5 are C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl or C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkenyl groups, which may be identical or different.The polymeric chlorosilazanes according to the invention can be converted by reaction with ammonia into polysilazanes, which in their turn can be pyrolysed to ceramic materials containing silicon nitride.

  • Patent number: 4952670
    Abstract: Polymeric hydridothiosilazanes, processes for the preparation thereof, silicon nitride-containing ceramic materials which can be prepared therefrom, and the preparation thereof.The invention relates to novel polymeric hydridothiosilazanes, the preparation thereof, the conversion thereof into silicon nitride-containing ceramic material, and this material itself. To prepare the polymeric hydridothiosilazanes, oligohydridoalkylsilazanes (RSiHNH).sub.n are reacted with elemental sulfur and ether as solvents. The polymeric hydridothiosilazanes can then be pyrolyzed to form silicon nitride-containing ceramic material.

  • Patent number: 4882448
    Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the preparation of Si,Si'-diorganyl-N-alkyl-tetrachloro-disilazanes of the formula RSiCl.sub.2 --NR'--SiCl.sub.2 R, in which R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, vinyl or phenyl and R' is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, and to these compounds themselves, with the exception of those where R=R'=CH.sub.3. To prepare the compounds mentioned, organyltrichlorosilanes RSiCl.sub.3 and monoalkylamines R'NH.sub.2 are reacted with one another in an aprotic solvent at -10.degree. C. to +70.degree. C., the molar ratio of RSiCl.sub.3 :R'NH.sub.2 being at least 0.3:1.
