The term secondary polymer layered impregnated tile (SPLIT) denotes a type of ablative composite thermal insulation tiles having engineered, spatially non-uniform compositions, says Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, California. The SPLIT concept enables several different combinations of constituent materials, spatial distributions of the materials, and fabrication processes. The starting material for fabricating a typical SPLIT is a porous substrate having a void volume fraction...
