Integrating ceramic matrix systems into coreless filament winding (CFW) enables the creation of sustainable, heat- and fire-resistant fiber composite lightweight structures. This study introduces a chemically bonded ceramic matrix system based on metakaolin, tailored for space applications utilizing lunar resources. The system employs acidic activation for processing with basalt/mineral fibers and alkaline activation for carbon fibers composites. Initially, the constituents of the matrix system are outlined, alongside potential synthesis pathways from lunar resources. Various formulations, incorporating different additives, are proposed. Through coupon compression testing, the most performative formulations for each activation type are selected for further investigation. The addition of zirconium silicate resulted in a higher compressive strength without significantly affecting the compressive modulus. The study then proceeds to experimentally characterize the matrix system’s viscosity. Subsequently, the processability of the proposed matrix system with CFW is demonstrated through the fabrication of generic medium-size lattice samples. Finally, these samples undergo destructive structural testing in compression. While emphasizing material development aspects, the investigation concludes that the feasibility of the proposed concept is validated through the successful fabrication and testing of generic CFW samples, affirming its potential use in space-related structural applications. |
