- Additional information
- This paper contains a fundamental study on different high melting compounds. In the search of using ultra high temperature materials for hypersonic applications, this paper has demonstrated that TaC-HfC ceramics exhibited highest melting point (close to 4000 °C) when compared with all other materials available.
A lot of research groups started to work on this system after this publication.
