Abstract
Nextel Ceramic fibers are developed primarily for
heat resistant applications. Due to their good strength to weight
ratio, these fibers are finding extensive use both as
reinforcement material and woven sheets used for various
aerospace applications. This review deals with the role of Nextel
founded structures for critical applications. These structures are
employed as spacecraft shielding against debris attack and
thermal insulation. Moreover the effect of different parameters
including fiber/matrix interface and the microstructure for
varying the properties of Nextel based structures are discussed.
