Suppression of α-quartz in montmorillonite–SiOC ceramic nanocomposites with water vapor-assisted pyrolysis
We present unreported mechanistic insight into how water vapor-assisted pyrolysis in the presence of MMT hinders SiO 2 crystallization and carbon removal, demonstrating a reversal of water vapor-induced effects in the presence of MMT nanosheets.
