Patent number: RE31447Abstract: Pre-polymers which are alkoxylated or phenoxylated methylpolysilanes are useful for the preparation of fine grained silicon carbide ceramic materials and silicon carbide-containing ceramics. The pre-polymers exhibit ease of handling and their use to obtain silicon carbide ceramic materials results in high yields.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 1982Date of Patent: November 22, 1983Assignee: Dow Corning CorporationInventors: Ronald H. Baney, John H. Gaul, Jr.
