As spacecraft hurtle through Earth’s atmosphere during re-entry, they face temperatures that can reach thousands of degrees Celsius. The challenge lies in safeguarding the spacecraft and its occupants from this intense heat, and refractory materials play a pivotal role in achieving this feat.
Understanding the Basics
Refractory materials are designed to withstand high temperatures and harsh conditions, making them ideal for applications where heat resistance is non-negotiable. In the aerospace industry, these materials find a critical application in the construction of heat shields, which protect spacecraft during re-entry.
