Abstract:
      Objective To improve the ablation property of C/C-SiC composites. Methods The novel polyzirconocenecarbosilane (PZCS) precursor was pyrolyzed through cross-linked and carbonization procedure. The structure, cross-linked, crystalline structure and element distribution of pyrolyzed ceramic of PZCS precursor were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermogravimetry (TG), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). C/C-SiC-ZrC composite was prepared by precursor infiltration and pyrolysis with PZCS as a precursor. The ablation resistance property was characterized through oxyacetylene ablation test. Results It was obvious that the ceramic yield of PZCS precursor was improved after cross-lined and carbonization process. The TG result showed that the ceramic yield at 980 ℃ was about 66.37%, and the received ceramic was well-distributed ZrC-SiC multi-phase ceramic. After the C/C-SiC-ZrC composite was ablated by oxyacetylene flame for 600 s, its linear ablation was 0.0067 mm/s, showing very good anti-ablation performance. Conclusion The formation of ZrO2 and SiO2 layer during the ablation of SiC-ZrC multiphase ceramic matrix acted as an effective oxygen and heat barrier, preventing oxygen and heat from diffusing into composite, which could enhance its ablation property efficiently.
