“…3,4 Currently, several types of synthetic and commercial continuous ceramic fibers, including binary ceramic fibers, such as Al 2 O 3 , BN, and SiC fibers, and multiple ceramic fibers, such as Si-B-N, Si-C-N, and Si-C-B-N fibers, are available. [5][6][7][8][9] Among these fibers, Si-C-B-N fibers have attracted considerable interest owing to their remarkable oxidation resistance (up to 1500 • C) and outstanding high-temperature stability (up to 1800 • C). The superior high-temperature stability of the SiBCN quaternary ceramic system was first reported by Riedel et al They reported that Si-C-B-N ceramics could exhibit amorphous structure and a very low loss weight loss at temperatures up to 2000 • C. 10 Müller et al synthesized Si 15 C 63 N 8 B 14 and Si 13 C 57 N 14 B 16 ceramics via a thermolysis of polymeric boron-containing silazanes [Si(CH = CH 2 ) 2 ⋅NH] n (n = 3, 4), which were mass stable at temperatures up to 2150 • C. 11,12 After that, Wang et al synthesized Si 2.9 B 1.0 C 14 N 2.9 , Si 3.9 B 1.0 C 11 N 3.2 , and Si 5.3 B 1.0 C 19 N 3.4 ceramics using a polymer-derived method.…”
