Abstract
Titanium diboride coatings (20 or 30 µm thick), deposited by hydrogen reduction
of TiCl4 and BC13, are protecting C/SiC substrates against oxidation up to 1100 °C. The oxidation
of TiB2 leads to the formation of a protective low viscosity B2O3 glass filling the cracks
of the primary CVD-SiC oxygen barrier. Above this temperature, the rapid consumption of the
B2O3 glass by vaporization limits the duration of the protection system. A comprehensive description
of the oxidation mechanism, based on a complementary experimental study of B2O3
evaporation, is presented.
