RESUMO

In recent years, research on the development of protective materials has expanded significantly in order to find efficient and economically viable solutions for application in various industrial segments. Among these materials, those aimed at protecting metallic substrates against high temperatures that end up causing corrosive processes, stand out due to the huge market demand. Advantages such as reproducibility in the process, cost reduction and reduction in environmental impact also directly contribute to the search for protective coatings as an efficient protective alternative. This article presents the characterization of a ceramic coating developed in a previous study that used silicon carbide as a filler, using potassium silicate (water glass) as a matrix (binder), and whose anti-corrosion and thermal protection properties stood out, mainly in applications in the aerospace industry. In this stage of the work, tests of thermal analysis (thermogravimetry) were carried out for the physical and chemical characterization of the material. The results corroborate those previously achieved when applying the coating on components of a hybrid rocket engine tested on a fixed-point bench.
