Research abstract
Hypersonic vehicles require high temperature thermal protection systems that are stable at temperatures above 1000?C to protect airframes, control surfaces, and internal assemblies from high radiative heat fluxes. Current state-of-the-art non-ablative materials used for thermal protection systems, such as yttria-stabilized zirconia, are unable to operate at temperatures above 1200?C. Aspen Products Group, Inc. proposes to develop a reinforced, sinter-resistant, oxidation-resistant, nanoporous ceramic foam with low thermal diffusivity that can reliably operate at temperatures up to 1500?C.
