Ablation behaviour of Cf–ZrC-SiC with and without rare earth metal oxide dopants
Continuous carbon fibre/carbon composites are candidates for ultra-high temperature applications due to their ability to retain their strength at elevated temperatures, however they easily oxidize and ablate in high temperature oxygen-based environments,

A novel microstructural design to improve the oxidation resistance of ZrB2-SiC ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) [PDF]
Abstract Directionally Solidified 72.8 mol% ZrB2 - 27.2 mol% SiC (equivalent to 20 vol%) composite was fabricated using a crucibleless-melting technique. Microstructural and XRD analyses confirmed the texturing of grains and lamellar structure. The Lotgering (00l) orientation factor was as high as 0.97.

UHTCs: Ultra-High Temperature Ceramic Materials for Extreme Environment Applications
3000°C. That’s not just hot … it’s EXTREMELY hot. It is above the melting or decomposition temperatures for most of the materials known to man. But in the world of extreme environment engineering, it is just a baseline.

Oxidation behavior of boron-containing (Zr,Ti)CxBy solid solution ceramics at 1600 °C in air
Multicomponent boron-containing carbide coatings (i.e., (Zr,Ti)CxBy) on a C/C composite show good ablation resistance. However, the high-temperature oxidation behavior of this new type of boron-containing (Zr,Ti)CxBy solid solution ceramics has not been ...
