Abstract:
The main objective of this paper is to determine the process of formation of black glasses from ladder-like silsesquioxane precursors. Well-defined polysilsesquioxanes with ladder-like structure obtained via the sol-gel process allowed to control the amount of introduced carbon which allows us to control the properties of received glasses. The samples were fired in argon atmosphere in temperature range 200, 400, 600 and 800oC. Conducted Raman and middle infrared (MIR) spectroscopy research allowed to determine the structure of obtained materials and thus, to describe the process of formation of black glasses.
