  2. Ultra-high temperature ceramic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high_temperature_ceramic

    Ultra-high-temperature ceramics (UHTCs) are a type of refractory ceramics that can withstand extremely high temperatures without degrading, often above 2,000 °C. [1] They also often have high thermal conductivities and are highly resistant to thermal shock, meaning they can withstand sudden and extreme changes in temperature without cracking ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high_temperature...

    However, above a certain temperature (it depends on environmental conditions of oxygen partial pressure) starts the active oxidation of silicon carbide matrix to gaseous silicon monoxide (SiO (g)), consequently loss of protection from further oxidation, which leads the material to an uncontrolled and fast erosion. For this reason C/SiC and SiC ...

  4. SiC–SiC matrix composite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SiC–SiC_matrix_composite

    The interplay between matrix microcracking and fiber-matrix debonding often dominates the failure mechanism of SiC/SiC composites. This results in SiC/SiC composites having non-brittle behavior despite being fully ceramic. Additionally, creep rates at high temperatures are also extremely low, but still dependent on its various constituents. [1] [6]

  5. Zirconium diboride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zirconium_diboride

    Zirconium diboride (ZrB 2) is a highly covalent refractory ceramic material with a hexagonal crystal structure.ZrB 2 is an ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) with a melting point of 3246 °C.

  6. Yttria-stabilized zirconia - Wikipedia

    The cementation occurs on removal of water. The resulting ceramic material is suitable for very high-temperature applications. YSZ doped with rare-earth materials can act as a thermographic phosphor and a luminescent material. [14] Historically used for glowing rods in Nernst lamps. As a high-temperature coating, produced by ZYP Coatings, Inc.

    An example of CMC manufacture, which was introduced for the production of ceramic brake discs, is the reaction of silicon with a porous preform of C/C. [14] The process temperature is above 1,414 °C (2,577 °F), that is above the melting point of silicon, and the process conditions are controlled such that the carbon fibers of the C/C-preform ...

  8. Ceramic - Wikipedia

    Ceramics generally can withstand very high temperatures, ranging from 1,000 °C to 1,600 °C (1,800 °F to 3,000 °F). A low magnification SEM micrograph of an advanced ceramic material. The properties of ceramics make fracturing an important inspection method. The crystallinity of ceramic materials varies widely.

  9. Ceramic-impregnated fabric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic-impregnated_fabric

    Ceramic fabric's industrial uses include furnace linings, furnace zone dividers, door seals, tube seals, gaskets, and expansion joints. In addition to being an effective thermal insulator, these fabrics do not shrink or elongate with high temperature changes, making them useful for industrial uses that involve high temperatures.
