Abstract

Self-assembled microstructures were manufactured by dip coating of substrates with unfilled and filler-loaded preceramic polymer mixtures in the presence of a solvent and a non-solvent. The nature of the polymers was characterized by their solubility parameters. Variation of the polymer/polymer ratio and the volume fraction of the solvent and/or non-solvent led to different surface structures. Studies of the structure formation mechanism indicate that demixing processes of the polymers are responsible for self-assembly in filler-free mixtures. In filler-loaded mixtures the structure formation process, however, is more complex. The micro-structured polymeric coatings obtained from filler loaded systems were converted into polymer derived ceramic coatings under shape retention. High specific surface areas were measured after thermal conversion. © 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
