High temperature ceramic materials
The problem of high-temperature materials for application to all forms of prime movers to improve thermal efficiency and to save strategic materials has resulted in efforts to develop ceramic coatings, ceramic bodies, and/or composite materials of ceramic and metal combinations as a means of improving the high-temperature characteristics of known materials. The results of these studies by various research organizations are briefly described. A chart is given which shows materials with exceptional high-temperature characteristics which are being investigated. A second chart is included which presents the physical and chemical properties of the following ceramic refractories: alumina, beryllia, magnesia, silicon carbide, thoria, zirconia, zircon, spinel, graphite, and carbon.
