Multicomponent powders based on SiCN and SiCN containing iron systems are of great interest as starting materials for sintering advanced ceramics and composites with improved properties for high temperature applications. We report a versatile method by which are designed inorganic polymers with a defined composition as precursors for a ceramic with induced properties. The synthesis of Si-C-N and Si-C-N- iron polymer precursors are performed in improved

The improving carbon nanostructure bioactivity related to a spe-cific microorganism community is an important research goal of bionanotechnology. The functionalized CNTs are used to im-prove the bioaffinity of working electrode in microbial fuel cells and wastewater treatment. Beside CNTs, carbon aerogel is an-other carbon material with high surface area, high open porosity and controllable morpho-structural characteristics. In the present work we

Abstract The metal-containing polymers combine the processability of organic polymers with the physical and chemical characteristics of the metallic element or complex. Poly(ferrocenylsilanes) with backbone of ferrocene and organo-silane units are currently studied as charge-transport-dissipation materials and as precursors to advanced nanostructured ceramics. The contribution deals with advantages offered by plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition
