Wg. Zhang et al., OXIDATION-KINETICS AND MECHANISMS OF CERAMIC-CARBON COMPOSITES I - MODELING FOR THE NONREACTIVE CERAMIC LAYER TYPE, Carbon (New York), 36(7-8), 1998, pp. 991-995
The decarbonization and oxidation processes in ceramic-carbon composit
es during oxidation in gaseous oxygen have been studied theoretically.
The influences of temperature, duration of time, content of ceramic i
n the composites and other factors on the oxidation are discussed kine
tically. According to the model, the recession rate of the carbon matr
ix will slow down rapidly with decrease of ceramic particle size to na
no scale, predicting a possible approach to design oxidation-resistant
new ceramic-carbon composites. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rig
