Résumé : |
The MCM ITP project aimed at developing and assessing the glass-matrix carbon-reinforced PyroKarb materials from Pyromeral Systems to achieve a specific thermo-mechanical performance requirement at high temperature for a short- to medium-duration exposure of several hundreds of seconds. The project's objectives were to develop material technologies for an ambitious high-temperature airframe component and address the requirements of affordability, temperature resistance, high specific strength, high stiffness and low weight. It was found that this technology is suitable for structural components for future long-range missiles. The project demonstrated the feasibility of manufacturing complex parts with the Pyromeral material technology. The demonstrator was successfully tested at ambient temperature to evaluate compliance with the design requirements. |
