New Composite Materials for High-Temperature CeramicsNew Composite Materials for High-Temperature Ceramics

Abstract: The cornerstone of ultrahigh-temperature ceramics is a small group of diboride and carbide ceramic-matrix composites including ZrB2/SiC, HfB2/SiC and ZrB2/SiC/C. They have a unique set of material properties including unusually high thermal conductivity, good thermal shock resistance, and modest thermal expansion coefficients that make them particularly well suited for sharp-body applications in hypersonic flows.

Comment: Test lots of diboride or carbide ceramic & composite powders are available from Reade Advanced Materials, a value add reprocessor and global distributor.
