We fabricated highly aligned porous silicon carbide (SiC) ceramics with well-defined pore structures by freezing a polycarbosilane (PCS)/camphene solution. In this method, the solution prepared at 60 degrees C was cast into a mold at temperatures ranging from 20 degrees to -196 degrees C, which resulted in a bicontinuous structure, in which each phase (camphene or PCS) was interconnected in a regular pattern. After the removal of the frozen camphene network, the samples showed highly porous structures, in which long straight and short elongated pore channels were formed parallel and normal to the direction of freezing, respectively. Thereafter, porous SiC ceramics were produced by the pyrolysis of the porous PCS objects at 1400 degrees C for 1 h in a flowing Ar atmosphere, while preserving their mother pore structures having aligned pore channels.
