Formation of Silicon Carbide Whiskers from Organic Precursors Via Sol-Gel Method
Silicon Carbide (SiC) was synthesized by carbothermal reduction of silica precursor and carbon precursor. The silica precursor was obtained from tetraethoxysilane. Sucrose was used as carbon source. Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) was hydrolyzed in acidic water (pH = 2). The molar ratio of TEOS-H2O-EtOH wa...
