G-2; Oxidation Behaviour of Ultra-high Temperature Polymer-derived Ceramic-matrix Composites: Elia Zancan1; 1University of Birmingham
    Ultra-high temperature ceramic composites (uhtcmcs) have shown considerable potential for withstanding the extreme conditions found in a range of different applications in the space and military fields, such as rocket nozzle inserts and hypersonic leading edges. Different processes are being investigated to produce uhtcmcs, with sintering, polymer infiltration & pyrolysis (pip) and chemical vapour infiltration (cvi) being the most common. This poster will present work undertaken on using a modified pre-ceramic polymer as a route to produce a fibre-reinforced ceramic matrix composite and the following high temperature oxidation behaviour characterisation.
