Abstract

Working principles are developed as guidelines for the selection and/or design of organometallic polymers for processing fiber precursors to metal oxide fibers. These principles form the basis for the selection of metal carboxylate preceramics as an optimal approach to processing yttrium barium cuprate (123) ceramic superconducting fibers. A variety of candidate yttrium, barium, calcium, strontium, bismuth, and copper metal carboxylates were synthesized. Solubility and empirical rheology tests were conducted to screen these compounds to choose spinnable precursor systems. Simple extrusion studies confirmed that THF solutions of mixtures of yttrium, barium, and copper isobutyrates with some quantity of barium 2-ethyl-hexanoates can be used to successfully form 60–70 μm diameter 123 precursor fibers.

14 Although organometallic compounds are typically defined as compounds containing a carbon-metal bond, we will use a somewhat broader definition wherein an organometallic material is one in which the properties of the metal are modified (controlled) by bonding interactions to organic ligands. Thus, metal alkoxides [M(OR)x] and carboxylates [(RCOz)xM] are also considered organometallic complexes.Google Scholar
