In the processing procedure, the porous BN ceramic matrix was first successfully prepared by compacting the mixed powders of B and BN and then sintering them at a certain temperature under normal pressure of N2.The polycarbosilane（PCS） solution was vacuum infiltrated into porous BN ceramics at the room temperature and then at 800℃ in the air to depolimerize out amorphous SiO2, and sintered further at 1300℃ in N2 to get BN/SiO2 composites. The microstructure of materials was studied by means of X-ray diffraction and electron probe micro （analysis.） The thermo-decomposition mechanism of PCS was investigated by a TG-DTA and infrared （IR） spectrum analysis. The flexural strengths were measured by the three-point bending method. The dielectric constant and the loss tangent were measured by the wave-guide method. The results show BN/SiO2 composites were fabricated. The obtained composites posses a flexural strength of 61.96-93.31MPa, the dielectric constant in the range of 3.50-3.78 and the order of magnitude of the loss tangent at 10-3, which are good for the high temperature dielectric parts with large size and complex shapes.展开更多
