(YIP-10) Enabling Dynamic Oxidation Mechanisms in Reverse Infiltrated Ultra-High Temperature Ceramic Coated C-C Composites for Application in Hypersonics

Abstract

The goal of this young investigator research plan is to establish a comprehensive research program that will advance the fundamental understanding of high-temperature oxidation mechanisms in novel reverse infiltrated multilayer ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) coated carbon-carbon (C-C) composites that will provide oxidation for future hypersonic vehicles. C-C composites provide high strength and low density for their use in hypersonics, but they oxidize in air at temperatures >500 deg C, and need thermal protection system (TPS) materials in order to survive aerothermal heating in excess of 2800 deg C.
