Biomorphic C/SiC composites were prepared by infiltrating liquid Si into a carbon
preform made from medium-density fiberboard. The effects of residual Si on the
ablation properties of the composites were investigated using an oxy-kerosene hypersonic torch. The results revealed that reducing the amount of residual Si plays an
important role in increasing the ablation and thermal shock resistances. High residual
Si resulted in thermal-shock cracking due to the high thermal expansion coefficient
and volume change during melting. The composite infiltrated with 30 wt.% Si
showed 0.9 × 10–4 g/cm2
∙s of the ablation rate and no thermal-shock cracking after
three successive ablation tests due to the formation of a thin SiO2 layer. Our findings
suggest that biomorphic C/SiC composites with minimal residual Si may be suitable
as reusable thermal protectors for reentry vehicles.
