A carbide coating for a surface intended to be subjected to stringencies of temperature and erosion, such as rocket nozzles, turbine blades, heat shields, and hypersonic structures, formed on a carbon substrate from a halide of hafnium, silicon, tantalum or zirconium, followed by deposition from a said halide and a hydrocarbon. The layer has a high melting point, can be made very thin, and resists cracking and spalling.

A surfacing for resistance to stringencies of erosion and elevated temperature which are characteristically encountered in rocket nozzles, on turbine blades, on heat shields, and on hypersonic structures, to protect an underlying carbon substrate which has before the formation of this surfacing an exposed carbon surface which is shaped and intended to be exposed to said stringencies but for the interposition of said surfacing, the depth of said substrate beneath said exposed surface being sufficient that there is a substantial thickness of carbon beneath the surfacing; said surfacing being formed as a continuum with the substrate at said surface, said surfacing having been formed by means of the following processing steps conducted in the order recited: a. placing the substrate in a closed vacuum furnace, reducing the pressure therein and heating the substrate to a temperature sufficient to enable the reactions defined hereinafter; b. admitting into the furnace a metal halide which vaporizes, whereby to form an initial carbide at said surface, formed as an intermolecular diffusion-grown carbide as a transition from the carbon substrate, derived only from metal from the metal halide, and from carbon derived only from said substrate; c. as a next event after step b, admitting to said furnace along with said metal halide, a carbon-containing compound, whereby to form by vapor deposition on said initial carbide, additional carbide formed of carbon from said carbon-containing compound and of metal from said metal halide as a continuous and uninterrupted carbide structure, so as to complete said surfacing as a structurally integral body without demarcation or discontinuity in itself; said surfacing being at least on the order of about 0.0015 inches thick, or thicker; and d. cooling said surfaced substrate and removing it from said furnace; said metal of said metal halide being selected from the group consisting of hafnium, silicon, tantalum, zirconium, and combinations of hafnium and silicon, tantalum or zirconium. A surfaced carbon substrate comprising a substrate and a surfacing formed as defined hereinafter, said surfacing providing resistance to stringencies of erosion and elevated temperatures which are characteristically encountered in rocket nozzles, on turbine blades, on heat shields, and on hypersonic structures, said substrate having had, before the formation of the surfacing an exposed carbon surface, which is shaped and intended to be directly exposed to said stringencies but for the interposition of said surfacing, the depth of said substrate beneath said exposed surface being sufficient that there is a substantial thickness of carbon beneath the surfacing; said surfacing being formed as a continuum with the substrate at said surface, said surfacing having been formed by means of the following processing steps conducted in the order recited: a. placing the substrate in a closed vacuum furnace, reducing the pressure therein, and heating the substrate to a temperature sufficient to enable the reactions defined hereinafter; b. admitting into the furnace a metal halide which vaporizes, whereby to form an initial carbide at said surface, formed as an intermolecular diffusion-grown carbide as a transition from the carbon substrate, derived only from metal from the metal halide, and from carbon only from said substrate; c. as a next event after step b, admitting to said furnace along with said metal halide, a carbon-containing compound, whereby to form by vapor deposition on said initial carbide, additional carbide formed of carbon from said carbon-containing compound and of metal from said metal halide as a continuous and uninterrupted carbide structure, so as to complete said surfacing as a structurally integral body without demarcation or discontinuity in itself, said surfacing being at least on the order of about 0.0015 inches thick, or thicker; and d. cooling said surfaced substrate and removing it from said furnace; said metal of said metal halide being selected from the group consisting of hafnium, silicon, tantalum, zirconium, and combinations of hafnium and silicon, tantalum, or zirconium. A process for producing a surfacing for resistance to stringencies of erosion and elevated temperature which are characteristically encountered in rocket nozzles, on turbine blades, on heat shields, and on hypersonic structures, to protect an underlying carbon substrate which has before the formation of this surfacing an exposed carbon surface which is shaped and intended to be exposed to said stringencies but for the interposition of said surfacing, the depth of said substrate beneath said exposed surface being sufficient that there is a substantial thickness of carbon beneath the surfacing, said surfacing being formed as a continuum with the substrate at said surface, said surfacing having been formed by means of the following processing steps conducted in the order recited: a. placing the substrate in a closed vacuum furnace, reducing the pressure therein and heating the substrate to a temperature sufficient to enable the reactions defined hereinafter; b. admitting into the furnace a metal halide which vaporizes, whereby to form an initial carbide at said surface, formed as an intermolecular diffusion-grown carbide as a transition from the carbon substrate, derived only from metal from the metal halide, and from carbon derived only from said substrate; c. as a next event after step b, admitting to said furnace along with said metal halide, a carbon-containing compound, whereby to form by vapor deposition on said initial carbide, additional carbide formed of carbon from said carbon-containing compound and of metal from said metal halide as a continuous and uninterrupted carbide struture, so as to complete said surfacing as a structurally integral body without demarcation or discontinuity in itself said surfacing being at least on the order of about 0.0015 inches thick, or thicker; and d. cooling said surfaced substrate and removing it from said furnace; said metal of said metal halide being selected from the group consisting of hafnium, silicon, tantalum, zirconium, and combinations of hafnium and silicon, tantalum or zirconium.
