The Si/B/C/N/H polymer T2(1), [B(C2H4Si(CH3)NH)3]n, was reacted with different amounts of H3Al·NMe3to produce three organometallic precursors for Si/B/C/N/Al ceramics. These precursors were transformed into ceramic materials by thermolysis at 1400 °C. The ceramic yield varied from 63% for the Al-poor polymer (3.6 wt.% Al) to 71% for the Al-rich precursor (9.2 wt.% Al). The as-thermolysed ceramics contained nano-sized SiC crystals. Heat treatment at 1800 °C led to the formation of a microstructure composed of crystalline SiC, Si3N4, AlN(+SiC) and a BNCxphase. At 2000 °C, nitrogen-containing phases (partly) decomposed in a nitrogen or argon atmosphere. The high temperature stability was not clearly related to the aluminium concentration within the samples. The oxidation behaviour was analysed at 1100, 1300, and 1500 °C. The addition of aluminium significantly improved the oxide scale quality with respect to adhesion, cracking and bubble formation compared to Al-free Si(/B)/C/N ceramics. Scale growth rates on Si/B/C/N/Al ceramics at 1500 °C were comparable with CVD–SiC and CVD–Si3N4, which makes these materials promising candidates for high-temperature applications in oxidizing environments.
