Abstract
In this work, AlN whisker-reinforced (Zr, Hf)O2 coating was prepared on SiC coated carbon/carbon composites by sol-gel and plasma spraying methods. Its cyclic ablation resistance was evaluated using an oxyacetylene torch with a heat flux of 2.38 MW/m2. After ablation, the coating showed apparently decreased crack sizes and quantity as compared with the one without AlN whisker addition, pointing out its better crack tolerance. Moreover, the coating had a thinner oxidized region based on the linear ablation rate (−0.042 µm/s), greatly lower than that of pure oxide coating (−0.922 µm/s). After detailed observation and characterization, probable protection mechanism was proposed.
