Hotblox B323
Material for use in high temperature thermal protection applications where high durability and strength are required. B323 has dielectric properties that are desirable for radome and antenna applications.
Key Material Characteristics:
- Efficient near net shape production of complex parts
- Dielectric properties suitable for applications requiring radar transparency such as radomes
- High maximum use temperature
Key Tests Performed:
- Heat flux of 350 W/cm² for 120 seconds during a LHMEL test at Wright Patterson Air Force base
- Mach 7 wind tunnel test at NASA Langley
- Currently part of the Materials International Space Station Experiment 6 (MISSE)
- Selected for MISSE 7
Hotblox B424
A lightweight (0.4 g/cc), high strength material for high temperature thermal insulation applications.
Key Material Characteristics:
- Efficient near net shape production of complex parts
- Low thermal conductivity
- High strength
- Dielectric properties suitable for radome and antenna applications
- Can be co-molded with other materials. For example, to add an abrasion resistant surface or ablative surface, etc.
Hotblox G29
High temperature polymeric material for continuous use at moderately high temperatures.
Key Material Characteristics:
- Efficient near net shape production of complex parts
- Dielectric properties suitable for applications requiring radar transparency such as radomes
- Low thermal conductivity
Hotblox M323
Novel ablative ceramic for thermal protection systems.
Key Material Characteristics:
- Efficient near net shape production of complex parts.
- At 800 °C, the material begins to ablate not allowing the temperature to rise above 800 °C.
- During ablation the dimensions of the material are retained.
Key Tests Performed:
- Heat flux of 350 W/cm² for 30 seconds during a LHMEL test at Wright Patterson Air Force base.
Hotblox X323
Solid-state ablative material for use in sensitive and enclosed environments where the evolution of gasses or liquids, typical of traditional ablative materials, can not be tolerated.
