Abstract

A long-term ablation-resistant nitrogen-containing carbide ultra-high temperature ceramic with an ultra-high melting point is prepared as follows: preparing the HfC powder and the HfN powder according to a mass ratio of HfC:HfN=(1-7):1; uniformly mixing the HfC powder and the HfN powder with the carbon powder and the carbon nitride powder to obtain a mixed powder, wherein the amount of the carbon powder and the amount of the carbon nitride powder do not exceed 8.0 wt. % and 5.0 wt. %, respectively, of the mixed powder mass; and performing spark plasma sintering on the mixed powder to produce the ceramic with the ultra-high melting point, a density ≥98%, and a uniform C/N content distribution. The ultra-high temperature ceramic is suitable for ultra-high temperature ablation-resistant protection at ≥3000° C. The ceramic maintains a close to zero ablation rate and a continuously stable oxidation-resistant protective structure after ablation for 300 s.
