Evaluation of Characterization Techniques for Carbon-Carbon Composites

Abstract

Characterization techniques for organic/inorganic composites are well established and documented; however, this is not the case regarding carbon- carbon composites. Due to expansion of the Materials Directorate in-house carbon-carbon composite research effort, the knowledge to characterize these complex composite structures is essential to their development. This report describes both existing techniques and techniques developed in the Materials Directorate to characterize carbon-carbon composites. carbon-carbon composites, computer tomography, microstructure, characterization techniques, vacuum impregnation, sectioning. nondestructive evaluation, optical microscopy.
