Carbon/Carbon composites used in rocket propulsion contain many process-related pores and have a porosity-dependent oxidation recession rate. A 1D analytical model has been developed to describe this behavior and assess the structure-reactivity relationship for the oxidation of such composites. The model has been compared to experiments for validation. Oxidation experiments have been carried out using samples featuring individually different matrix fractions in a thermogravimetric analysis apparatus under dry air. Post-test morphologies were characterized with X-ray micro-computerized tomography and a 3D-image correlation technique. Finally, guidelines are given for the design and optimization of porous C/C composites with respect to oxidation resistanceRead less <
