Coal-Based Porous Graphite for Aerospace Heat Exchanger Applications
SBC: TOUCHSTONE RESEARCH LABORATORY, LTD. Topic: AF03118A newly developed "coal-based" porous graphite material has been recently produced. This development is a direct result of Touchstone Research Laboratory's Phase I funding to develop enhanced-strength carbon foam heat-exchanger materials for aerospace applications since low density carbon foams cannot endure high bleed air pressures in aerospace pre-coolers and heat exchangers. The newly develope ...
