Hafnium carbide is gray solid, which is available in powder and sputtering target. It has highest melting point among single compounds. Hafnium(IV) oxide is the raw material.
Hafnium Carbide
| CAS No.:12069-85-1 | EC No.:235-114-1 | Molecular Formula: HfC | Molecular Weight: 190.50 |
| Density:12.7 | Melting Point:3890℃ | Mass Resistivity: 1.95*10-4 | Thermal Expansivity: 6.73*10-6 |
Applications
HfC can form solid solution with many compounds as ZrC, TaC and so on. For example HfC-4TaC complex carbide that is disphase from microscopic strucutre. One phase is HfC-TaC eutectic. The other phase is needle-like free graphite phase of shape ratio 50:1. This near eutectic HfC products own good thermostability and high melting point, which can use in laryngeal material of rocket nozzle
