Tantalum Hafnium Carbide (TaxHfy-xCy) Description
Tantalum Hafnium Carbide (TaxHfy-xCy) is a powerful powder material that consists of tantalum (Ta), hafnium (Hf), and carbon (C). It is a combination of TaxCx and Hfy-xCy-x. It has an extremely high melting point and was thought to have the highest melting point of any material until HfCN. Tantalum Hafnium Carbide inherits the properties of both Tantalum carbide and Hafnium Carbide. This powder has excellent merits like high melting point, thermal and chemical stability, and mechanical strength. It is applied in industries where the environments are extreme, i.e., high temperature and corrosive environment.
