Why is it important?
The use of these materials is very important in the development of light and heat resistant combustion chambers.
Perspectives
With this nozzle of a small liquid rocket chamber of 5 kN under development, will be operated with the use of ablative and metallic materials. This study will provide future aplications to a more light, performant and reliable engines for sounding rockets.
