Gasification and removal of carbon materials and redeposited boron–carbon layers exposed in an oxygen–ozone mixture

详细

The results from experiments on measuring the rate of gasification for carbon and boron–carbon films and carbon fiber composite (CFC) exposed in oxygen–ozone mixtures are presented. The rate of gasification is 0.4–0.6 μm h^–1 (at temperatures of 220–250°C, a pressure of 0.3 atm, and an ozone concentration of 0.6 at %) for carbon films; plane CFC samples; gaps 1 and 2 mm wide with walls of stainless steel; and gaps 1 mm wide with walls of CFC. It is 15 μm h^–1 for plane CFC at a temperature of 250°C, a pressure of 1 atm, and an ozone concentration of 10 at %. The rate of gasification for boron–carbon films is from 3 to 30 nm h^–1 for B/C ratios of 2.1 to 0.8 (at 250°C, 1 atm, and ozone concentration of 10 at %).
