Anti-Ablation Property of MoSi2 Coatings Deposited by APS

Article Preview

Abstract:

Carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix composites (C/C) have received much attention due to their excellent high-temperature strength, high thermal conductivity, low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), good thermal shock resistance. However, the poor ablation resistance of the C/C restricts its high temperature ablating applications. Making a thin anti-ablation coating on the C/C has been proved to improve the performance effectively. In order to improve the anti-ablation property of the composite, MoSi2 coatings were deposited by Atmosphere Plasma Spraying (APS) on the SiC covered C/C matrix. The SiC coatings were prepared by pack cementation. Oxyacetylene flame torch was selected to simulate the ablation situation. The ablation temperature was 1800°C. XRD and SEM were employed to discover the diversification of the coatings structure and composition. And the mechanism of anti-ablation of the MoSi2 coatings system was investigated in this paper.
