Aerospace

In the aerospace industry, silicon carbide is used to create mirrors and structures. The properties of silicon carbide make it a desirable choice for these end products. Silicon carbide is lightweight and rigid, making it suitable for use in aircraft and space vehicles. It is also resistant to thermal shock, preventing mechanical fatigue and damage from extreme temperature changes. Additionally, silicon carbide is resistant to moisture absorption and deterioration caused by space radiation. These properties make it a strong contender in the aerospace industry, competing with materials such as beryllium for use in mirrors. The Kymera International product SIKA Sintex and SIKA Unikiln FCP07 are specific types of silicon carbide that are used in the aerospace industry for their excellent performance and durability.

Reliability is an absolute necessity in any new aerospace development. Kymera International works very closely with its customers to meet their particularly high technical requirements. Aerospace market requirements stimulate technological progress and synergies with Kymera International, leading to the development of products perfectly adapted to extreme conditions.
