Faster, Better, and Cheaper Materials

Extended lifecycles and shrinking budgets are driving the need for higher-performance materials and advanced protective coatings in the defense industry. As technologies develop, aero engine components and hypersonic flight structures need to operate at higher temperatures and under harsher conditions.

 
Cerablak^® coating technologies provide the protection necessary to integrate today’s technology into tomorrow’s working conditions. Cerablak® Ultra Thin Films provide added protection and surface engineering for anti-corrosion, anti-fouling and other harsh environments in advanced applications. ATFI-engineered Ceramic Matrix Composites provide long-lasting lightweight, high-temperature structural and electrical performance under harsh conditions. These materials will make a significant impact in meeting the defense industry’s high-temperature performance challenges for the 21st century.
