#space composites

Composites have been employed in space applications for decades, and their application continues to grow. Composite applications can be seen on human spaceflight vehicles, satellites and payloads, and the launch vehicles used for space transportation. Composites in spacecrafts have proven to be successful and valuable when the mission requires the spacecraft to be lightweight and have environmental stability. In addition, advanced composites are majorly used in launch vehicles for a growing number of applications. For instance, solid rocket motors and pressure vessels, which are used for fuel and gas storage, are usually reinforced with advanced composites such as carbon fiber reinforced composite. Composites have become a requirement for ablative and other high-temperature components in rocket motor nozzles and re-entry heat shields.

High modulus carbon fiber reinforced laminates are one of the majorly used for many composite spacecraft applications. In human crew capsules, composite panels are used to provide for the thermal protection system (TPS) required for vehicle re-entry. The temperature capability and low thermal expansion offer additional benefits by reducing the amount of TPS material required, which reduces the weight of the vehicle. Carbon fiber laminates are widely used on satellites and payload support structures. For instance, satellite bus structures are made using aluminum honeycomb sandwich panels with either carbon fiber or aluminum facesheets.  Also, high-modulus, high-thermal conductivity carbon fiber laminates with low moisture absorption resins, typically cyanate ester, are always used for manufacturing optical benches and other spacecraft structures, which must sustain dimensional stability for accuracy. These advanced composites help in maintaining extreme dimensional stability over extreme temperature when the spacecraft is in space. Apart from this, RF reflectors and solar array substrates also use high-modulus carbon fiber laminates in order to achieve stiffness and dimensional stability. There are several factors that contribute to the growth of the advanced space composites market. Technologies such as reusable launch vehicle systems, on-orbit manufacturing technologies, and upcoming space stations and habitats have the potential to further the use of advanced composites for space applications.
