Recent developments in elastomeric heat shielding materials for solid rocket motor casing application for future perspective

Catastrophic breakdown that occurs during the flight of supersonic vehicles demands more focused research in the insulation of rocket engines. At present, optimization of polymeric ablatives as viable insulation for solid rocket motor casing has a prominent role in the successful mission of rockets. Among polymers, elastomer serves an imperative part. Comprehensive investigations were disclosed, especially in the elastomeric heat shielding materials with various reinforcing agents. In this paper, research progress of mostly used elastomers is reviewed, and a circumstantial understanding about the features of ablation and insulation has been validated.     

Synthesis of Stereoblock Elastomeric Poly(propylene)s Using a (2‐PhInd)2ZrCl2 Metallocene Catalyst in the Presence of Co‐Catalyst Mixtures: Study of Activity and Molecular Weight

The effect of adding various aluminum alkyls (R = Et, i‐Bu) on the polymerization of propylene is studied using a (2‐PhInd)₂ZrCl₂ pre‐catalyst. A mild deactivating effect is found upon addition of TIBA, whereas TEA shows a sharp deactivating effect. Increasing amounts of AlR₃ results in a significant activity increase for TIBA, but an activity plateau for TEA. AlR₃ imposes remarkably different effects on the molecular weight and stereochemical microstructure of polymers. As the TIBA concentration increases, $\overline {M} _{{\rm v}} $ increases at first, growing from 49 000 to 72 000, but subsequently drops to 40 000. For TEA, $\overline {M} _{{\rm v}} $ decreases sharply, plummeting from 49 000 to 17 000. Both TIBA and TEA increase the mmmm pentad content from 7.9 to 23.5% and 17.6%, respectively.

     

Synthesis of elastomeric polypropylene in bulk using C 1-symmetric ansa-metallocenes. New aspects of the synthesis of 1-(fluoren-9-yl)-2-(2-methyl-5,6-dihydrocyclopenta [f]-1H-inden-1-yl)ethane and complexes of zirconium and hafnium with this ligand

Isomeric 1-(fluoren-9-yl)-2-(2-methyl-5, 6-dihydrocyclopenta [f]-1 H-indenyl) ethanes 1a,b and C ₁-symmetric metallocenes, viz., rac-1-(η⁵-fluoren-9-yl)-2-(2-methyl-5, 6-dihydrocyclopenta [f]-η⁵-inden-1-yl) ethanezirconium dichloride (9) and rac-1-(η⁵-fluoren-9-yl)- 2-(2-methyl-5, 6-dihydrocyclopenta [f]η⁵-inden-1-yl)ethanehafnium dichloride (10), with these ligands were synthesized by modified procedures. The structures of compounds 1b (two crystalline modifications) and 10 were established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The synthesis of polypropylene (PP) in bulk was studied in the presence of polymethylalumoxane-activated metallocenes 9 and 10 in the temperature range of 30–70°C. It was demonstrated that triisobutylaluminum can be used as a cocatalyst. In this case, the molecular weight of PP increases by a factor of ∼2. An increase in the reaction temperature leads to an increase in stereoregularity and crystallinity of PP. The polymer synthesized at high temperatures crystallizes in the γ form. The resulting PP is characterized by a wide range of properties from rigid crystalline thermoplastic to amorphous elastomeric. Samples, which have a high molecular weight and moderate isotacticity, exhibit high elastomeric and durability properties.__________Published in Russian in Izvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Relationship of deformation behavior to thermal transitions of ethylene/styrene and ethylene/octene copolymers

The stress‐strain response of low‐crystallinity ethylene‐octene (EO) and ethylene‐styrene (ES) copolymers with 7–20 mol % comonomer was compared over a temperature range that spanned the glass‐transition and crystal melting regions. Above the onset temperature of the glass transition, the copolymers exhibited elastomeric behavior with low initial modulus, uniform deformation to high strains, and high recovery after the stress was released. In the glass‐transition range, an initial low‐stress elastomeric response was followed by a distinct “bump” in the stress‐strain curve. On the basis of the temperature and rate dependence of the stress‐strain curve, local strain‐rate measurements, local temperature changes, and recovery characteristics, the “bump” was identified as high strain yielding. Hence, the stress‐strain curve sequentially exhibited the features of elastomeric and plastic deformation. Following high strain yielding, strain hardening dramatically increased the fracture strength. This behavior was defined as elastomeric‐plastic. Elastomeric‐plastic behavior in the broad glass‐transition range constituted a gradual transition from elastomeric behavior at higher temperatures to low‐temperature plastic behavior with high modulus and macroscopic necking. Because of the lower glass‐transition temperature of EO, ?40 °C as compared with ?10 °C for ES, the onset of elastomeric‐plastic behavior occurred at a significantly lower temperature. The concept of a network of flexible chains with fringed micellar crystals serving as the multifunctional junctions that provides the structural basis for elastomeric behavior of low‐crystallinity ethylene copolymers was extended to elastomeric‐plastic behavior by considering a network with a fraction of rigid, glassy chains. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Polymerization of propylene with the three-component catalytic system bis(2-phenylindenyl)zirconium dichloride—alkyl magnesium chloride—triisobutylaluminum is studied. The annelated zirconocene is alkylated by the Grignard reagent. The three-component system is as good in activity as two-component systems with polymethylalumoxane as a cocatalyst. Stereoblock elastomeric polypropylene with a high molecular weight is formed.     

Estimation of limit strains in disk-type flywheels made of a compliant elastomeric matrix composite undergoing radial creep

Fiber reinforced elastomeric matrix composites (EMCs) offer several potential advantages for construction of rotors for flywheel energy storage systems. One potential advantage, for safety considerations, is the existence of maximum stresses near the outside radius of thick circumferentially wound EMC disks, which could lead to a desirable self-arresting failure mode at ultimate speeds. Certain unidirectionally reinforced EMCs, however, have been noted to creep readily under the influence of stress transverse to the fibers. In this paper, stress redistribution in a spinning thick disk made of a circumferentially filament wound EMC material on a small rigid hub has been analyzed with the assumption of total radial stress relaxation due to radial creep. It is shown that, following complete relaxation, the circumferential strains and stresses are maximized at the outside radius of the disk. Importantly, the radial tensile strains are three times greater than the circumferential strains at any given radius. Therefore, a unidirectional EMC material system that can safely endure transverse tensile creep strains of at least three times the elastic longitudinal strain capacity of the same material is likely to maintain the theoretically safe failure mode despite complete radial stress relaxation.

Performance of glass woven fabric composites with admicellar-coated thin elastomeric interphase

Adequate stress transfer between the inorganic reinforcement and surrounding polymeric matrix is essential for achieving enhanced structural integrity and extended lifetime performance of fiber-reinforced composites. The insertion of an elastomeric interlayer helps increase the stress-transfer capabilities across the fiber/matrix interface and considerably reduces crack initiation phenomena at the fiber ends. In this study, admicellar polymerization is used to modify the fiber/matrix interface in glass woven fabric composites by forming thickness-controlled poly(styrene-co-isoprene) coatings. These admicellar interphases have distinct characteristics (e.g. topology and surface coverage) depending on the surfactant/monomer ratios used during the polymerization reaction. Overall, the admicellar coatings have a positive effect on the mechanical response of resin transfer molded, E-glass/epoxy parts. For instance, ultimate tensile strength of composites with admicellar sizings improved 50–55% over the control-desized samples. Interlaminar shear strength also showed increases ranging from 18 to 38% over the same control group. Interestingly, the flexural properties of these composites proved sensitive to the type of interphase formed for various admicellar polymerization conditions. Higher surface coverage and film connectedness in admicellar polymeric sizings are observed to enhance stress transfer at the interfacial region.     

Contact theorems for rough interfaces

Contact theorems for rough surfaces are discussed. Simple relations for the average contact density are obtained for neutral and charged walls. When the walls are not planar there are new contributions proportional to the field gradients near the charged wall.
