Abstract
Multicomponent solid solution ceramics have attracted extensive attention for their superior ablation resistance and high-temperature resistance, which are expected to extend the service life of carbon/carbon (C/C) composites under an ablation environment above 2000 °C. Herein, we synthesized (Hf⅓Zr⅓Ta⅓)C solid solution ceramic powders via carbothermal reduction. Then a dense (Hf⅓Zr⅓Ta⅓)C solid solution ceramic coating was deposited on SiC-coated C/C composites by supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying. The coated samples exhibited a low linear ablation rate of −0.61 μm/s after ablation for 120 s, mainly associated with the formation of a compact oxide scale consisting of (Hf, Zr)6Ta2O17 and (Hf, Zr)O2. The refractory (Hf, Zr)O2 skeleton structure possessed good thermal endurance, and the Ta-rich oxide melt filled the defects of the skeleton.
