Oxidation and ablation behavior of ZrB2-SiC sharp leading edge under hypersonic environment
Sharp leading edge produced by ZrB2-20vol%SiC ultra high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) was ablated under ground simulated hypersonic conditions using an archeated wind tunnel with the stagnation pressure and Mach number of 1.2 atm and 2.7 M, respectively, and sharp leading edge C/SiC sample was also ablated under the same condition for comparison. ZrB2-SiC composite exhibited an excellent thermal-oxidative and configurational stability in the simulated hypersonic environment compared with C/SiC material. Microstructure of the oxide scale of ZrB2-SiC composite after ablation was also investigated. The oxidation and ablation mechanism was also discussed.
