Minimum Cost Design (MCD) Material Screening. Test Report No. 3 - General Electric ESM1004.

Abstract

This is the third of a series of reports describing the results of test firings conducted to determine the performance of low-cost ablative materials which are candidates for use as thrust chamber and nozzle liners for MCD (Minimum Cost Design) booster engines. This report describes the test of G.E. ESM1004, an ablative composed of a foamed silicone elastomer filled with aluminum silicate fibers.
