Hybrid Inorganic/Organic Reactive Polymers for Severe Environment Protection

摘要

Significant advances in materials and processing technologies have made within AFRL/PRSM: demonstrated ceramic char layer of POSS-insulation, synthesized POSS-Kapton (up to 20 wt% POSS), demonstrated significant (9x) atomic oxygen survivability and formation of ceramic SiO2 layer. Basic (6.1) and Applications (6.2) research have been successfully integrated in Air Force Propulsion Programs: successful technology transfer of POSS nanotechnology, POSS nanotechnology on critical and high risk path for the Air Force.
