The influence of nanodiamonds (NDs) on the thermal and ablative performance of carbon-fiber-reinforced-epoxy matrix compositeswas explored. The ablative response of the composites with 0.2 wt% and 0.4 wt% NDs was studied through pre-and post-burning morphologies of the composite surfaces by evaluati...
