SiC membranes synthesized from precursor polymers have an excellent thermal and corrosion resistances and the structure is amorphous with nano-hole which has gas permeability. Therefore, the membranes are expected as a hydrogen separation filter that can be used in the severe environment. However, the improvement of the amount of the hydrogen penetration and the separation ratio is required. In this research, the possibility of controlling the gas penetration of the SiC membranes by EB crosslinking technique was examined.

The crystal structure of Li(CoNiMn)O was studied by the Rietveld method using the neutron powder diffraction, and the neutron scattering length density maps were analyzed for the investigation of the Li conduction path by the maximum entropy method (MEM). The crystal structure could be refined with the space group, -3. Though Li, (Co, Ni, Mn) and O atoms were mainly occupied at 3, 3 and 6 sites, 3.8% of 3 site was substituted by Ni atom. According to the neutron scattering length density maps obtained by MEM, it is assumed that the Li atom was diffused through the 3-9-3.

A precursor for SiC-based materials was prepared by blending polycarbosilane (PCS) with palladium (II) acetate (Pd(OAc)). Obtained PCS/Pd(OAc) blend showed a mass residue of 81% at 1200C, which is 25% higher than that of pure PCS. Furthermore, a FT-IR spectrum of PCS/Pd(OAc) blend showed the decay of absorbing peaks assigned to Si-H bond containing in the PCS. These results indicate that Pd(OAc) acts as a crosslinking agent of PCS and is very useful to synthesize a SiC-based material with high ceramic yield.
