Description

The high-temperature hardness of tantalum carbide is linked to the presence of extended stacking faults. Suzuki hardening limited by carbon diffusion is presented as the mechanism which distinguishes tantalum carbide from other carbides with the same structure. Softening is predicted to occur at temperatures near those observed experimentally
