The development of autoclave processable, thermally stable adhesives for titanium alloy and graphite composite structures

The A-type polyimide adhesive resin P11B was modified by use of mixed diamines (thio-dianiline and meta phenylene diamine) which provided the desired autoclave processability. This new resin was termed P11BA. It was shown that copolymeric blends of P11BA and Amoco AI-1137 amide-imide resin provided improved adhesive properties when autoclave processed over the properties obtained previously by press bonding with P11B based copolymeric blended adhesives. Properties of bonded assemblies are presented for long-term aging at both elevated and low temperatures, and also stress-rupture tests at elevated temperature.

Development and evaluation of vacuum pressure gauge components from carbon and graphite

A prototype all carbon triode ultrahigh vacuum gage was fabricated and tested. The gage exhibited a sensitivity of 3.7 per torr for nitrogen and an X-ray background approximately 0.1 as large as would be expected of a metal gage of the same design. The gage made from these materials, showed good sensitivity and durability. A practical technique was developed for bonding carbon components together without metal fasteners. The bond is made with a cross-linked phenolic resin which is converted to vitreous carbon by a careful pyrolysis procedure. The resulting bonds are strong, electrically conductive, and can withstand repeated excursions to 2500 K in vacuum. Measurements of adsorption and outgassing characteristics of four refractory carbons have confirmed that such materials are suitable for use in ultrahigh vacuum and that some are superior refractory metals in man respects.

Development of a low void polyimide resin for autoclave processing of glass and graphite reinforced composites.

Experimental studies are described in which new A-type polyimide prepolymer chemical modifications were investigated with the aim of increasing the melt phase duration and temperature range permitting autoclave processing, yet retaining the addition-type cure mechanism required for low-void content composites. Several modification candidates were examined, and one specific formulation was selected for detailed investigation. This A-type polyimide prepolymer formulation is shown to possess the desired characteristics.

Development of advanced composite rocket motor chambers using boron and graphite fibers.

Four 71-cm-diameter rocket motor chambers were designed and fabricated with advanced composite materials. The first three chambers were filament wound from boron/epoxy tape, and the fourth from graphite/epoxy tape. The first boron/epoxy chamber was 74 cm in length and was successfully hydroburst tested. The other three chambers were 57.6 cm in length for a smaller propellant load. The first shortened boron/epoxy chamber failed in proof test as a result of fabrication deficiencies. The last boron/epoxy and the graphite/epoxy chambers were successfully proof tested.
