Abstract

A material for protecting a surface from heat made of a mixture comprising cork granules and resin as a binding agent, which also includes short fibers of heat-resistant material, and phenolic resin or epoxy resin.

Claims (12)

1. A heat protection material composition that encrusts for protecting a surface from heat, comprising:

cork granules, carbon or alumina fibers and resin, the resin being a binding agent of the heat protection material composition and the heat protection material being designed so that the heat protection material composition has an ablative crust formed when exposed to a heat flow, wherein the heat protection material composition in total comprises 20 to 35% of the resin chosen between epoxy or phenolic resin by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole, 12 to 18% of the carbon or alumina fibers by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole and wherein the 20 to 35% by mass of the resin and the 12 to 18% by mass of said carbon or alumina fibers provide for the remainder of the heat protection material composition to be 47 to 68% cork granules by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole.

2. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 1 , wherein the percentage of the carbon or alumina fibers is between 14.5 to 15.5% by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole.

3. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 1 , wherein the resin is phenolic resin.

4. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 3 , wherein the percentage of the phenolic resin is between 20 and 30% by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole.

5. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 4 , wherein the percentage of the phenolic resin is 25.9%±2% by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole.

6. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 1 , wherein the resin is epoxy resin.

7. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 6 , wherein the percentage of the epoxy resin is between 20 and 35% by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole.

8. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 7 , wherein the percentage of the epoxy resin is 27%±2% by mass relative to the heat protection material composition as a whole.

9. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 6 , wherein the epoxy resin is a resin with two ingredients.

10. The heat protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 1 , wherein the fibers are carbon fibers.

11. The protection material composition that encrusts according to claim 1 , wherein the fibers are alumina fibers.
