Spinnable mullite precursor sols were prepared by sol-gel process from an aqueous solution of aluminum nitrate
aluminum isopropoxide and tetraethylorthosilicate. A 4:1 molar ratio of aluminum isopropoxide and aluminum nitrate was optimized to obtain spinnable precursor sols for fibres synthesis. The mullite fiber was obtained with smooth surface and uniform diameter after calcination at 1 200 ℃ for one hour. The active energy of mullite crystallization is 993.5 kJ/mol and 1 014.2 kJ/mol by the calculation of Kissinger equation and Ligero equation
respectively.
