ABSTRACT:
A process for preparing a silicon carbide foam by impregnating a polyurethane foam with a suspension of silicon powder in an organic resin, heating progressively to polymerize the resin, heating further to carbonize the polyurethane foam and resin, and finally further heating to carburize the silicon contained in the resin suspension by means of carbon obtained from the carbonization of the foam and resin. The foam obtained is characterized by high macroporosity and a mesoporosity which is variable according to the carburizing temperature.
