Abstract:In this research, a SiC/ZrB2 coating was produced on graphite by reactive melt infiltration and plasma spraying method. The coating characterization was performed using XRD analysis, electron microscopy equipped with energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), and supersonic flame ablation test at 2073 K. The results indicated that the dense C/SiC coating with good ablation resistance can be obtained at 1873 K. The coating thickness decreased with increasing infiltration temperature. The results of ablation test sho… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
