Solving the problems when developing high-temperature composite materials (HTCM) requires non-standard approaches, as for example, using the long-term high-heat treatment (HHT), which has a significant effect on mechanical properties of the HTCM at high temperatures. To obtain a niobium-based HTCM reinforced with α-Al2O3 single crystal fibers (“Nb – SCF α-Al2O3”) hot pressing technique was used in the research. The HHT effect at 1350 °C of the HTCM on its high-temperature (1300 °C) bending strength, hardness and density at 22 °C after 100 hours HHT with a step in 25 hours was investigated. The samples structure and elements distribution at the interfacial boundaries of HTCMs were studied. It was established that the elements interdiffusion width at the interphase boundary of the continuous composition “Nb – SCF α-Al2O3” doesn’t exceed 2 μm for the whole HHT term; in outside the interphase boundary, only niobium oxides and carbides were detected. It was found that the bending strength after 25 hours HHT slightly exceeded the strength of the initial sample (before HHT); with further high-temperature HHT, the strength increased by 1.7 – 2 times in comparison with the initial sample. The hardness (HV 0.5) after 25 hours HHT remained actually unchanged (70), and subsequently sharply increased and the average hardness in three aging stages (50, 75 and 100 hours) was 330. The density of HTCMs increased with HHT, and after 100 hours HHT increased in comparison with the original sample by 1.3 times.

Implementation of high temperature solar reservoirs is associated with problems related to the physical properties of materials, especially with temperature resistance of the material at temperature changes, with high heat capacity, with high thermal conductivity and with material fire resistance. In the case of silicate materials, more specific materials with favourable physical properties are available, which can be used for the construction of high temperature containers. The basic prerequisite for designing such container is the knowledge of the physical properties of the heat storage core and the thermal insulation ability of container cladding layers.The paper deals with the problem of identification of material properties of silicates in the wide temperature range up to 800 °C, using the standard measurement methodology, improved by additional temperature recording at a defined distance from the thermal source during the dynamic thermal development of the linear thermal source, well-known as the hot wire method.

Rapid solidification processing (RSP) is one method of producing high strength aluminum alloys for elevated temperature applications. Allied-Signal, Inc. has produced an Al-12.4 Fe-1.2 V-2.3 Si (composition in wt pct) alloy which possesses good microstructural stability up to 425°C. This alloy contains a high volume fraction (37 v/o) of fine nearly spherical, α-Al12(Fe, V)3Si dispersoids. The improved elevated temperature strength and stability of this alloy is due to the slower dispersoid coarsening rate of the silicide particles. Additionally, the high v/o of second phase particles should inhibit recrystallization and grain growth, and thus reduce any loss in strength due to long term, high temperature annealing.The focus of this research is to investigate microstructural changes induced by long term, high temperature static annealing heat-treatments. Annealing treatments for up to 1000 hours were carried out on this alloy at 500°C, 550°C and 600°C. Particle coarsening and/or recrystallization and grain growth would be accelerated in these temperature regimes.

In order to investigate the necessary device improvements for high-temperature CO sensing with SiC metal insulator semiconductor field effect transistor (MISFET)-based chemical gas sensors, devices employing, as the gas-sensitive gate contact, a film of co-deposited Pt/Al2O3 instead of the commonly used catalytic metal-based contacts were fabricated and characterized for CO detection at elevated temperatures and different CO and O2 levels. It can be concluded that the sensing mechanism at elevated temperatures correlates with oxygen removal from the sensor surface rather than the surface CO coverage as observed at lower temperatures. The long-term stability performance was also shown to be improved compared to that of previously studied devices.
