THERMO-PHOTO-SHIELDING FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE THERMAL MANAGEMENT

摘要

The present disclosure provides a multi-layer thermal protection material comprising: (i) a substrate layer; (ii) a reflection layer formed on the substrate layer; and (iii) an emission layer formed on the reflection layer and effective to convert thermal energy to photonic energy. The reflection layer comprises a porous scattering media effective to reflect photonic energy away from the substrate layer. The emission layer comprises a thermally emissive dopant incorporated into a thermal matrix material. The present disclosure also provides articles such as portions of hypersonic flight vehicles and turbine component parts that include coatings comprising the multi-layer protection material of the present disclosure. The present disclosure also provides methods of making and using the multi-layer thermal protection material and associated articles described herein.
