Aerospace Insulation & Radomes

Saint-Gobain Quartz has been actively present in the aerospace market, with materials made from fused quartz, such as Quartzel® fiber for insulation and dielectric composites, amorphous silica powder for investment casting processes, and Micaver parts for lamps sockets.

Quartzel in Aerospace 

Saint-Gobain Quartz is the worldwide leader of Quartzel fused quartz fiber, with more than 50 years of experience and innovation. A very high structural performance associated with high thermal resistance and low dielectric characteristics make Quartzel® the material of choice.
 
Our products can be found in the following application :

  •     Civilian and non-civilian aircraft radomes including latest generation aircraft using active antennas 
  •     Stealth materials
  •     SATCOM radomes operating in Ku, Ka band or multi-band
  •     Aircraft engine environment such as fireproof cables, blankets for firewalls, thermal insulation, aircraft fuselage fire barriers
  •     Thermal Protection systems of space launchers
  •     Ablative atmospheric re-entry materials
  •     Exhaust cones (thermal insulation or ablative) of rocket motors for example

 

Powders in Aerospace 

Our Amorphous Silica powders are used for the production of inserts for investment casting of metallic parts like turbine blades. The controlled purity, low thermal expansion gives to the inserts excellent thermal stability in the casting process.
