摘要:
A method is provided for solid-propellant engines to be dismantled safely and in accordance with environmental standards having been scrapped. For each engine to be dismantled, it is mounted on a static test rig, immersed in a tank filled with water and started such that propellant is used up under the water. The soluble part of the combustion products (gases or condensates) thus remains trapped in the water in the tank while the non-soluble solid products drop to the bottom of the tank. The body of the engine emptied of its fuel in this way and rendered pyrotechnically inert is then taken apart or disassembled. Periodically, the water in the tank is withdrawn and the tank stripped of its deposits such that subsequent dismantling operations can be carried out under proper conditions. All of the combustion products recovered are sent to appropriate reprocessing plants. The method allows high dismantling rates.

摘要:
Novel composite materials are provided consisting of a substrate based on fibers of natural, mineral or vegetable origin, and of a mixture formed from a matrix of water-based resin and an expanding agent. The nature and the proportions of the various elements constituting these novel composite materials is also provided. A method of manufacture for making these novel composite materials starting from the constituent elements and the characteristics of the different steps of said method is also provided.

摘要:
A novel composite material is obtained by winding a reinforcing yarn, made of refractory fibers, onto a form, and a mandrel, the wound yarn being impregnated, as it is wound, with a “slip” composed of a liquid resin mixed with fillers composed of particles of refractory material. The reinforcing yarn is composed of linear fibers and of fibers forming protruding loops which confer a three-dimensional texture on the wound reinforcement. The yarn preform composed of the reinforcing yarn impregnated with “slip” is crosslinked according to a defined heating cycle comprising several temperature gradients of different durations. The crosslinked yarn preform is subsequently machined so as to bring the composite material component thus produced to the desired shape. The composite material component thus shaped can optionally be reinforced by overwinding on its external face with a reinforcing yarn preimpregnated with a resin chemically compatible with the resin constituting the material.
