Abstract

C/C-TaC composites prepared by liquid precursors are promising in improving the ablation properties of C/C composites. The formation mechanism of TaC by tantalum-contained resin precursor was investigated through the analysis of components and morphologies of tantalum-contained resin after different heat treatment by XRD and SEM together with the DSC-TG results of tantalum-contained solution. The results show that tantalum-contained solution promotes the solidification of resin. Treated at 100℃, TaF5 will hydrolyze into TaO2F and the resin will solidify. Treated at 800℃ in vacuum atmosphere, part of TaO2F in tantalum-contained resin will decompose into Ta2O5 solid and TaF5 gas. Then, Ta2O5 will be reduced and compounded by carbon into TaC with fine sizes at 1000℃. The lossof tantalum can be controlled by prolonging treatment time at lower temperatures (room temperature --100℃) and introducing anhydrous ammonia into the solution.
