Ceramic Matrix Composites

Why Silicon Carbide for CMCs?

CARBOREX(R) silicon carbide powders are the premier reinforcement material for ceramic matrix composites. Built to perform under extreme thermal, mechanical and electrical stress, CARBOREX delivers consistency, resilience and precision where it matters most.

  • High Thermal Conductivity & Stability -- Performs at >1500 C with low thermal expansion
  • Exceptional Mechanical Strength -- Withstands abrasion, erosion, fatigue and creep
  • Dielectric Strength & Mechanical Control -- Tunable conductivity, EMI and ESD protection
