The technologies provide additively manufactured thermal protection system.
A pressure burst feature has been designed and demonstrated for relieving potentially hazardous excess pressure within irradiation capsules used in the ORNL High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR).
This invention focuses on improving the ceramic yield of preceramic polymers by tuning the crosslinking process that occurs during vat photopolymerization (VP).
Sintering additives to improve densification and microstructure control of UN provides a facile approach to producing high quality nuclear fuels.
The use of biomass fiber reinforcement for polymer composite applications, like those in buildings or automotive, has expanded rapidly due to the low cost, high stiffness, and inherent renewability of these materials. Biomass are commonly disposed of as waste.
Using all polymer formulations, the PIP densification is improved almost 70% over traditional preceramic polymers and PIP material leading to cost and times saving for densifying ceramic composites made from powder or fibers.
The technologies provide a system and method of needling of veiled AS4 fabric tape.
Fiberglass, semi-structural insulation for recycled glass fiber and using a low cost silicon with pultruded rods, either fiberglass and a low cost resin, polyester for pultruded rods. It will reduce the use of wood, which is flammable, and still be structural.
The use of Fluidized Bed Chemical Vapor Deposition to coat particles or fibers is inherently slow and capital intensive, as it requires constant modifications to the equipment to account for changes in the characteristics of the substrates to be coated.
The ID provides a solution approach for faster chemical processing and carbon functional grading from SiC to MC to provide a tougher carbon and CMC structure.
