New Ceramic May Help Hypersonic Planes Take Off

Ceramics have strong bonds between their atoms—unlike metals, in which the electrons in those bonds have more freedom to move around. This gives ceramics high melting points, permitting them to be deployed in hot circumstances. New hypersonic ceramic could prove beneficial. FRICTION burns. And the friction of the air on something travelling at five times the [...]

Scientists Create a New Ceramic, Resistant to Extreme Temperatures

Scientists have managed to create a new multi-layered ceramic material with heat resistance of the upper layer exceeding 3,000 degrees Celsius. High temperature ceramics are ideal for the manufacture of aircraft engines. Physicists and technicians of the TSU and Institute of Strength Physics and Materials Science SB RAS are developing experimental samples of ceramics that are resistant [...]
