Abstract
The paper presents a study in stability of ceramics of hafnium carbide-nitride subjected to impact of a nitrogen plasma jet in air atmosphere. The best thermal resistance was demonstrated for ceramics with N/C » 0.698, which is determined by the maximum of surface temperature and minimum mass loss in the series of HfC- HfN solid solutions.
