Beginning with early innovation for the Space Shuttle program, Materion has manufactured protective coating materials made of complex boride, carbide, silicide, and nitrides for terrestrial and exoearth technologies. Advancements in airframes and requirements to reach higher speeds, greater altitudes, and multiple re-entries have made it critical to have access to materials and chemicals that support the demands of new and existing aerospace technologies and applications.
With unmatched chemical expertise, a strong supply chain, and the ability to customize complex materials and characteristics, Materion works closely with customers to develop custom products for thermal protection systems and other aerospace applications, including jet engine turbines, leading-edge surfaces, and specialty alloy-enhancing additives.
