Abstract
Use of epoxy-novolac resin systems in carbon fabric ablative composites as advanced insulation materials is studied. Three types of carbon fabrics are used and their composites are prepared by impregnation and hand lay-up methods. In order to study thermal stability and ablation behavior, the composites are tested by thermal tests such as, thermogravimetry and standard oxyacetylene flame tests. It is found that the composite, which is made up of C-9750, high strength carbon fabric, in comparison with steel and the other types of carbon fabric composites, has the highest thermal stability and the best ablation behavior.
