Abstract

Ablation tests of ultrahigh-temperature HfB2 and HfB2–SiC based hot-pressed ceramic samples in the air under heating in the flame of a burner fed with a O2/C2H2 mixture at a distance of 13 mm to the surface of a sample have demonstrated that HfB2 ceramic with 30 wt % of SiC additive with a grain size of 30–50 and 5–10 µm and a mass loss of 0.25 mg/s is much more stable (up to 2066–2080°C) as compared to additive-free HfB2 ceramic cracking at a temperature of 1870°C. Fracture toughness values are comparable for all the studied materials, and the hardness of HfB2–SiC composites is slightly higher.
