Hafnium carbide is a good material for the lining of high melting point metal smelting crucibles

Overview of Hafnium Carbide HfC Powder

Hafnium Carbide (HfC), a gray solid with metallic luster, has the highest melting point among the known single compounds, and is a good material for the lining of high melting point metal melting crucibles; it has high melting point, high hardness, good high temperature strength, and corrosion resistance. Good and low thermal conductivity. It can be used as an additive to hard Chemicalbook alloys. It is widely used in cutting tools and molds. It is also suitable for rocket nozzle materials. It can be used in the nose cone of rockets. It is often used in the aerospace field. It can also be used in nozzles, high temperature resistant linings, arc or electrolysis electrodes; at the same time, it can also be used in nuclear reactor control rods.

Hafnium carbide is usually synthesized with hafnium dioxide (HfO2) and carbon in an inert or reducing atmosphere. The reaction temperature is 1900-2300℃. Hafnium carbide can form a solid solution with many compounds (such as ZrC, TaC, etc.). Properties: Density is 12.7g/cm3, melting point is 3890℃, which is the highest melting point among known single compounds. The volume resistivity is 1.95×10-4Ω·cm (2900℃), and the thermal expansion coefficient is 6.73×10-6/℃. Generally, hafnium dioxide (HfO2) and carbon are used to synthesize powder in an inert or reducing atmosphere. The reaction temperature of 1900-2300°C Hafnium carbide can form a solid solution with many compounds (such as ZrC, TaC, etc.). It has a high melting point and high coefficient of elasticity, good electrical and thermal conductivity, small thermal expansion and good impact performance.
