The request in new multipurpose ceramic for ultra-hight temperature applications, able to act as plasma-facing parts in fusion reactors as far as a special engine & vehicle protection for aerospace cause the worldwide demand in new class of light-weight ceramic composites with incredibly high strength, sufficient balance between high toughness & hardness, ultra-hardness and high-modulus. In NIMS Dr. Oleg Vasylkiv conducting research in chemical and structural engineering of ultra-hard & ultra-strong boron-rich ceramic composites. Non-Catalytic Facile Synthesis of superhard zero- and two-dimensional B13C2 nanostructures. This B13C2 nanoflakes shows high concentration of (1 0 1) type twinning which enhance the toughness of bulk ceramic. This engineered nanostructure boron carbide later shows great potential in the demand of extreme mechanical application, particularly in the construction of complex hierarchical structure nanocomposites. Deep analysis of novel highly ordered nano-scale structure of green-lipped mussel perna canaliculus been performed. The three-dimensional highly ordered nanostructure framework allows understanding the complex growth mechanism and serves as a guide to biomimetic design of artificial nacre-like, high strength, tough composites. Dr. Vasylkiv has combined the merits of powder chemical synthesis, design of artificial nacre-like, high strength, tough composites, Electric Current Activated Processing Techniques and of processing strategies for the design of technologies, applied on powder body with establishing morpho-structural and compositional features, which lead to fabrication of bulk multi-functional high-temperature ceramics within reactive & non-reactive approaches. Currently been confirmed that high-temperature (RD-ECAST) multilevel design of composites of MeIV–VB2, MeIV–V carbides & carbo-borides, nitrides and carbo-nitrides is beneficial in strength increase, elasticity & HT plasticity resulting in improving both room and high-temperature performance. Ultra-high temperature (UHTC) bulk non-oxide and oxide ceramic show excellent properties controlled by composition, grains and by grain boundaries. They are composites where grains and boundaries are the ‘components’. The concept of ‘multilevel design’ from nano to macro levels and concept ‘composite within a composite’ are emerging. Engineering of bulk B13C2, B6O, B4C–TiB2, TiB2–B, B4C–TaB2, B6O-B4C, TiB2–NbC, ZrB2–TaB2, NbB2 composites with unique structure, strength, hardness and toughness by combining the merits of powder synthesis, Electric Current Activated Processing Techniques (ECAST) and of processing strategies of establishing morpho-structural and compositional features, for fabrication of multi-functional UHTC. Reaction-driven spark plasma sintering technique (RDSPS) allows generation of unique bulk high-temperature ceramic composites of practical size and unchallengeable combination of thermo-mechanical properties. Hard and tough BaCb-(BxOy/BN) composites with 3D mesh-like lamellar grain-boundary structure by reactive SPS. There is a growing interest in lightweight covalent ceramics containing B, Ti, Al, C, O and N, which show high stability, chemical resistance, exceptional hardness to specific weight ratio & unique high temperature strength at elevated temperatures. The complex relation between SPS consolidation conditions, features of B4C (B13C2) ceramics and static and dynamic mechanical properties of consolidated ceramics been analyzed. Six-time improved dynamic toughness of massive BaCb-(BxOy/BN) ceramics 6.73 to 35.9 MJ/m2 by structural & GB engineering under RD-SPS conditions. Structural and GB engineering leads to increase in strength, meaning that both strengthening and toughening been activated during consolidation of boron carbide based monoliths by the RD-SPS. We SPSed a B4C–TiB2 system where TiB2 served either as a matrix and a reinforcement phase with stiff covalent skeleton of B4C. This ceramic exhibited RT strength of up to 0.9 GPa with increasing to 1.1 GPa at 1600 °C and 3.8 GPa at 1800 °C. Highly stoichiometric multilayer pentagonal star-shaped only covalent B6Ox (x > 0.85) powder been synthesized. The B6O-based composites are solving the problem of monolithic boron suboxide densification, as the oxygen deficiency in the rhombohedral cell at the 6c position; (x in B6Ox) affects the ‘sinterability’ of as-synthesized boron suboxide powders. B6O bulks exhibit 42 GPa Vickers hardness at 100 N load. The effect of specific star-shape on the high-temperature strength of boron suboxide been investigated. The increase in strength was associated with unique microstructure of B6O grains, and suggests GPa strength at above 1800 °C. Further increase in strength for boron suboxide bulk was associated with grain structure deformation prior to temperatures for B6O dissociation at 1800 °C. In addition the orthorhombic phase AlB24C4, the most compact with the closest packing to ideal cubic one among the Al-B-C phases containing 12-type icosahedra been obtained via RD-SPS. Ternary single-phase high-entropy TaZrNb carbide was obtained using reaction driven-ECAST. Phase analysis and lattice parameter measurements using x-ray diffraction showed multi-stage formation of the single-phase high-entropy-type carbide with lattice parameter of 4.535 Å. This is expected to be also true for other multicomponent high-entropy carbides, as metal atoms have a different diffusivity in newly formed phases. Flexural strength of TaZrNb carbide showed a peak of strength at 1600 °C. Above this temperature, carbide phase fractured in a different manner and been accompanied with decrease in strength and elastic modulus.

      Deformation-resistant UHTC high-entropy ceramics and composites becoming extremely attractive. Light, ultra-hard bulk B4C-based composites with hierarchical superstructure with deformation resistivity from RT to 2000°C (Fig. 1(a)) exhibit change in the deformation mechanism from brittle fracture to plastic deformation, and flexural strength far exceeding 1000MPa at 1800 - 2000°C (Fig. 1(b, c)). Depending on the loading rate, B4C-based ceramic showed 1000 - 8400MPa strength at 2000°C (Fig. 1(b)). Bulk ultrastrong TiB2-B4C ceramic exhibits a mean flexural strength of 1000MPa up to 1800°C, and further increasing to 1760MPa at 2000°C. Recently produced bulk, ultrahard, tough, deformation-resistant Ta diboride, Ta monoboride, Zr-Ta multiboride, and high-entropy TaB2-ZrB2-TiB2-HfB2.
