Development of Advanced Lightweight Polymeric Foam Thermal Protection for Space Launch Vehicles
Lightweight thermal protective materials are essential for temperature regulation during ascent of space launch vehicles, especially for expendable launch vehicles and cryogenic propellant tanks. Among the lightest thermal protective materials commonly in use is polymeric foam, in the form of pour foam or spray-on foam insulation (SOFI). Foam processing is rapid, can accommodate large-scale or small-scale challenging geometries easily, and can be used in a climate controlled or non-climate-controlled setting. Application systems can be fixed or portable. Use-temperatures of foam range from cryogenic to those that will ablate the material.
