Abstract

Carbon/carbon(C/C) composites were bonded with a phosphate adhesive prepared from H3PO4 (orthophosphoric acid) and Al(OH)3 as the matrix and Si and CuO as the inorganic fillers. The mechanical properties were tested at room temperature after the bonded specimens were treated from RT to 1500°C. The results showed that the addition of CuO could greatly improve the adhesive's mechanical properties due to the formation of CunSi (copper silicides). The shear strength of bonded specimens could be up to 8.2 MPa without heat treatment and remain above 2 MPa within the whole heat‐treatment temperature range.
