Tantalum hafnium carbide is a refractory chemical compound with a general formula Ta x Hf y C x+y, which can be considered as a solid solution of tantalum carbide and hafnium carbide. It was originally thought to have the highest melting of any known substance but new research has proven that hafnium carbonitride has a higher melting point.
Hafnium carbide (Hf C) is a chemical compound of hafnium and carbon.Previously the material was estimated to have a melting point of about 3,900 °C. [2] More recent tests have been able to conclusively prove that the substance has an even higher melting point of 3,958 °C exceeding those of tantalum carbide and tantalum hafnium carbide which were both previously estimated to be higher.

Tantalum carbide is widely used as sintering additive in ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) or as a ceramic reinforcement in high-entropy alloys (HEAs) due to its excellent physical properties in melting point, hardness, elastic modulus, thermal conductivity, thermal shock resistance, and chemical stability, which makes it a desirable ...
The mixed carbide tantalum hafnium carbide (Ta 4 HfC 5) possesses the highest melting point of any currently known compound, 4,263 K (3,990 °C; 7,214 °F). [21] Recent supercomputer simulations suggest a hafnium alloy with a melting point of 4,400 K. [22] Hafnium forms both a hafnium(III) and a hafnium(IV) nitride.
Hafnium is used in alloys with iron, titanium, niobium, tantalum, and other metals. An alloy used for liquid-rocket thruster nozzles, for example the main engine of the Apollo Lunar Modules , is C103 which consists of 89% niobium, 10% hafnium and 1% titanium.
The chain uses 100% all-natural Angus beef that’s freshly ground and never frozen. Each patty is cooked to order, with no fillers, no preservatives — just real, high-quality beef.
A person then dips skewered fruit into the mixture, encasing it in the sugar. Once it dries, it creates a glass-like coating. While tanghulu was popular this year, doctors warned that hot sugar ...
Hafnium carbide is the most refractory binary compound known, with a melting point of 3890 °C. [8] [9] The ternary compound tantalum hafnium carbide has one of the highest melting points of all known compounds (4215 °C). [10] [11] Molybdenum disilicide has a high melting point of 2030 °C and is often used as a heating element.
