“…The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a modern analytical device with images featuring a large depth of field. This characteristic aids in creating a three-dimensional representation of the sample's surface structure, allowing us to utilize SEM for the characterization and analysis of porous media surface morphology [31,32]. We took samples from the surface of the oxidized composite and scanned the samples using a SEM model TESCAN MIRA LMS.…”

The C/SiC composite plays a crucial role in providing thermal protection for hypersonic vehicles. The SiO2 oxide layer formed via passive oxidation during ablation constitutes a typical porous medium with self-similarity. Given its significant impact on the thermal protection of the material, accurately predicting the variation in the SiO2 oxide layer thickness is of paramount importance. The growth of the oxide layer impedes the diffusion of oxygen within the material. This study considered microstructural parameters of the oxide layer based on high-temperature gas oxidation tests of the C/SiC composite. Fractal theory was utilized to construct a fractal diffusion-reaction kinetics model describing oxygen diffusion within the oxide layer and the evolution of the oxide layer under varying environmental conditions. The finding demonstrated that the existence of the oxide layer significantly influences the passive oxidation of the composite. This study underscored the significance of predicting the impact of environmental parameters on passive oxidation in the practical application of the C/SiC composite and the study result offers a valuable reference for evaluating the thermal resistance of the C/SiC composite.
