HfC-SiC protective coating was deposited on the surface of SiC-coated carbon/carbon composites by supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying due to the high arc temperature and the efficient deposition rate. The morphology and microstructure of the HfC-SiC coating were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that Hf and Si elements distributed uniformly in the coating and the coating was dense without crack. Ablation resistance test was processed by oxyacetylene torch. During the ablation process, the sintering rate of HfO2 was slow, and more oxygen diffused into the internal coating, which caused the oxidation of the internal coating and damaged the structure of internal coating in the ablation center region. In addition, during cooling process, a new phase HfSiO4 was generated by the reaction between HfO2 and SiO2, which acted as a pinning agent to prevent the further expansion of the crack.

In order to improve the ablation resistance of C/C composites HfC coating was deposited on the surface of SiC-coated C/C composites by supersonic atmospheric plasma spraying. The microstructure and morphology of the different coatings were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy, X-ray diffraction. The ablation test of samples was carried out with an oxyacetylene torch. The coating exhibits dense structure and good ablation resistance. After ablation for 30s, the linear and mass ablation rates of the coating are 0.59 μm/s and 0.6 mg/s, respectively. In ablation centre region, a HfO2 layer is formed on the surface of sample after 30s ablation, and it can protect C/C composites from ablation.
