A Study of Degradation Mechanism of a Low-Power DC Arcjet Anode
TL;DR: In this paper, a preliminary life test of a low-power DC arcjet anode was conducted using a 500-W-class laboratory-model arcjet, and micrograph analyses showed different degradation features for the two anodes: for the conventional tungsten anode, grains were severely embrittled in the recrystalization processes after the thruster operation accompanied by many cracks or even drops out of grains.
