Production

Heating powdered metal or HfO with coke or soot. {\displaystyle {\mathsf {Hf+C\ {\xrightarrow {T}}\ HfC}}}or passing a gaseous mixture of HfCl4, methane and hydrogen over a red-hot tungsten wire. {\displaystyle {\mathsf {HfCl_{4}+CH_{4}\ {\xrightarrow {T,H_{2}}}\ HfC+4HCl}}}

Use

Abrasives, ceramics component, material for heat resistant coatings, manufacture of control rods for nuclear boilers.
