A method for preparing a refractory carbide component includes the steps of providing a carbon rich polymer precursor to silicon carbide and excess carbon, determining an amount of excess carbon in the carbon rich polymer precursor, combining the carbon rich polymer precursor with a selected amount of refractory metal to form a precursor/metal mixture, the selected amount being selected so as to provide stoichiometrically equivalent amounts of the excess carbon and the refractory metal, forming the mixture into a preform of a propulsion component, and heating the preform so as to thermally degrade the carbon rich polymer precursor to produce the silicon carbide and the excess carbon, the excess carbon and the refractory metal reacting to form refractory metal carbide and provide the refractory carbide component.
