SiC ceramics, known for their lightweight, high strength, high temperature resistance and oxidation resistance, find extensive applications in aerospace, energy and transportation industries. The polymer-derived ceramics (PDC) method is an important method for the preparation of SiC ceramics, employing special polymers as raw materials and converting them into inorganic ceramics via high-temperature pyrolysis. This method offers advantages such as controllable elemental composition, ease of molding, and lower processing temperatures. As one of the most important raw materials in the PDC method, hyperbranched liquid polycarbosilanes, synthesized via the Grignard coupling reaction and the subsequent reduction reaction, are prized for their low viscosity, high ceramic yield, and ease of processing and molding. Therefore, it has been widely used in the fabrication of ceramic matrix composites, coatings and membrane materials. A large number of articles have been published on the synthesis and applications of polycarbosilanes. The molecular structure of SiC polymer precursors not only influences their curing and pyrolysis processes, including weight loss and gas release behavior, but also plays an important role in determining the elemental composition(e.g., C/Si ratio), crystallization behavior and oxidation resistance. There are many studies conducted to investigate the structure of precursors affecting their curing and pyrolysis properties. However, it is very necessary to investigate the relationship between molecular structures of different types of liquid polycarbosilanes with varying C/Si ratios and their curing, pyrolysis and crystallization behaviors. In this work, the curing and pyrolysis behaviors as well as the crystallization behavior of two major types of liquid hyperbranched polycarbosilanes vinylhydridopolycarbosilane (VHPCS) and allylmethylhydridopolycarbosilane (AMHPCS)) with different carbon-to-silicon ratios and molecular structures were comprehensively characterized by a variety of testing methods.The relationship between the molecular structure and the ceramization process, as well as the properties of the ceramic products, was established using five types of liquid polycarbosilanes with varying C/Si ratios and molecular structures.
