| Abstract Scope |
The data on oxidation behavior of Silicon (Si) containing borides of the Group IV of metals ubiquitous in literature are analyzed to understand the effect of composition mixture, sintering parameters, densification, grain size, and testing conditions. It is fundamental to examine the reactions and physical phenomena undergoing during the oxidation process to be able to propose oxidation resistance measuring metrics. The main challenge to achieve such an analysis is to collect enough reliable data points to develop high-level comprehensive plots. In the present work, a conjunction of mathematical and statistical techniques has been utilized to converge the scattered datapoints into approximate functions to identify the influence of different parameters on the oxidation kinetics. The breakdown of this data will help the community to digest the fundamental properties of these materials to design innovative and superior thermal protective systems (TPS's) for new generation aerospace applications. |
