A SURVEY OF HIGH TEMPERATURE CERAMIC MATERIALS FOR RADOMES.
Abstract
A comprehensive survey was conducted of available information concerning the use of nonmetallic inorganic refractory material in the fabrication of radomes for elevated temperature use. In conducting this survey, both open literature and contract reports were studied. These were augmented with facility visits and personal communications with both missile contractors and materials suppliers. The comments of other Government agencies were actively solicited to insure all active contract efforts in this field of research would be included in this report. In addition, views concerning future efforts in the fabrication of radomes from nonmetallic inorganic refractory materials were also discussed in an effort to determine the direction of advanced planning in this area of research. The available data were analyzed to determine their validity, and that information considered to be reliable and accurate was compiled in both tabular and graphical form. Throughout this effort, it was difficult to characterize completely the majority of the materials in terms of chemical composition. (Author)
