Ultra high temperature ceramics conference. Recent developments in ultra high temperature ceramics at nasa ames nasa ames is pursuing a variety of approaches to modify and control the microstructure of uhtcs with the goal of improving fracture toughness oxidation resistance and controlling thermal conductivity. Raju and bikramjit basu conference proceeding pdf. The overall goal is to produce materials that can perform reliably as sharp leading edges or nose tips in hypersonic reentry. January 24 january 28 2020.

Broadly speaking uhtcs are borides carbides nitrides and oxides of early transition metals. Ultrahigh temperature ceramic coatings. Dec 09 international conference on ultra high temperature ceramic materials and their applications icuhtcma new york united states dec 20 international conference on ceramic biomaterials iccb dubai united arab emirates january 2022. For less oxidizing applications that experience higher temperatures ultramet can apply hafnium carbide tantalum carbide or zirconium carbide as coatings or matrices within composites.

Eligible attendees are undergrad and graduate students. Ultra high temperature ceramics uhtcs are materials of interest for use in extreme environments that are beyond the capabilities of other materials. As per available reports about 2 journals 2 conferences are presently dedicated exclusively to ultra high temperature ceramics and about 113 articles are being published on the current trends in ultra high temperature ceramics.
