Abstract

High-density (with a relative density of up to 98.8%) ultra-high-temperature ceramic materials (UHTCs) based on the ZrB2–TaC–SiC system were obtained by hot pressing for 15 min at 2000°C 30 MPa of pressure in an argon atmosphere. Phase composition, lattice parameters, microstructure, flexural strength, Vickers hardness and crack resistance were studied. The maximum values of strength, hardness and crack resistance were 440 MPa, 20.3 GPa and 5.3 MPa·m1/2, respectively. The effect of the ZrB2/TaC ratio on the lattice constants and the mechanical properties of the material is established.
