Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of thermal protection of carbon-based or ceramic-based composites, and in particular relates to a dual-skeleton reinforced ablative-resistant C MP / C-HfC composite material, its preparation method and application. Background Art

[0002] When a reentry orbital vehicle performs cross-atmospheric flight, it will generate strong aerodynamic heating, resulting in extremely harsh service conditions (local temperature up to over 3000 °C). Therefore, extremely strict usage and performance requirements are imposed on the ultra-high temperature hot-end materials for constructing the thermal protection system. Carbon / carbon (C / C) composite materials have the characteristics of low density, high specific strength, low thermal expansion and excellent mechanical properties, and they are also the only high-temperature engineering materials that can maintain their mechanical properties without obvious decline or even increase at temperatures above 2000 °C. However, C / C composite materials also face serious problems of intrinsic oxidation and thermal ablation, which have become the key technical bottlenecks restricting their stable service under high-temperature conditions.

[0003] The inventor found through past research that HfC has the highest melting point (3890 °C), extremely low vapor pressure and excellent ablation resistance, and the formed oxidation product HfO2 also has a melting point as high as over 2800 °C, which is one of the most promising ablation-resistant materials at present. However, the introduced third phase or discontinuous ceramics may all have an adverse impact on the mechanical strength of the material. In addition, the above matrix modification methods for C / C composite materials are all based on the passive protection principle of improving the temperature resistance of the material, and there are few practices of reducing the ablation rate by improving the thermal conductivity of the material through this active protection mechanism. At present, carbon / carbon (C MP / C) composite materials with a main reinforcement structure of mesophase pitch-based carbon fibers (MPCF) have outstanding ultra-high thermal conductivity, enabling them to significantly reduce the surface temperature, thermal gradient and ablation rate of the material, and becoming an important development direction for aerospace application materials in recent years. Therefore, it is urgent to explore and construct a new system and innovative structure of fiber-matrix on the basis of the traditional matrix modification concept, aiming to fundamentally solve the problem of performance degradation caused by the introduced HfC.
