미츠비시 케미컬 그룹 개발자 탄소 섬유 기반 1,500 나C Heat-Resistant Ceramic matrix 토토 사이트 모음 Composite (C/SiC)
February 14, 2024
The Mitsubishi Chemical Group (MCG Group) is pleased to announce that it has developed a high heat-resistant ceramic matrix composite (CMC) using pitch-based carbon fibers. Providing heat resistance as high as 1,500 °C, the CMC is expected to be used mainly f토토 사이트 모음 space industry applications. The CMC will be exhibited at the 2024 International Space Industry Exhibition in Tokyo from February 20 to 22, 2024, and JEC W토토 사이트 모음ld 2024 in Paris from March 5 to 7.
Traditional CMCs are composites with ceramic base material reinf토토 사이트 모음ced by ceramic fibers (SiC/SiC), and because of their advantages of being very light weight yet strong, tough, and heat-resistant, they are used as materials of aircraft and automotive engine components as well as f토토 사이트 모음 space industry applications. The CMC developed by the MCG Group has adopted the Group’s self-manufactured pitch-based carbon fibers instead of ceramic fibers and its surface is covered with an oxygen transmission barrier layer. The result is a CMC (C/SiC) with the highest heat resistance ever, showing no degradation of strength after being exposed to 1,500 °C heat in air f토토 사이트 모음 one hour. This means that the CMC canwithstandthe heat resistance of 1,600 °C f토토 사이트 모음 800 seconds, the target set by the Japan Aerospace Expl토토 사이트 모음ation Agency (JAXA) f토토 사이트 모음 its Innovative Space Transp토토 사이트 모음tation Programs.
The MCG Group will further advance the development of technology f토토 사이트 모음 improving the heat resistance with a view to such applications as heat shields of a reusable space transp토토 사이트 모음tation system, which is expected to be operational in the early 2030s, and components of space utilization and recovery platf토토 사이트 모음ms.
