Abstract: | Hierarchical porous SiOC ceramics were successfully prepared using a polysiloxane preceramic polymer mixed with wood biomass by annealing at different temperatures under Ar atmosphere. These SiOC ceramics display a trimodal pore size distribution in the micro-, meso- (micropores + mesopores, 1.7–14 nm) and macro-size scale (1–15 μm). The mesopores and micropores mainly originate from the formation of large amounts of SiC crystals and nanowires, graphite-like microcrystallites, and nm-scale pores of ray parenchyma cells and pits of the wood biomass. The SiOC sample prepared at a higher temperature processes the specific surface area up to 180.5 m2/g. The specific surface area, pore volume and average pore width of the samples can be controlled by adjusting the pyrolysis temperature. |
