CFRP has become key to targeting efforts in reusing components like rocket stages, as well as the development of reusable hypersonic testbeds and spaceplanes, for increasing space commercialization.

Ultra high-temperature insulating CMC targets hypersonics, space heat shields and other demanding applications, tested up to 2760°C under extreme stagnation pressures.

The Aurora rocket-powered aircraft reached Mach 1.1 and more than 82,000 feet, the highest altitude achieved by a New Zealand vehicle, as well as beating the record for fastest aircraft ascent.

Advanced Ceramic Fibers LLC demonstrates ultra-high temperature ceramic matrix composites using SiC and other metallic carbides for applications in aerospace, defense, energy and more.

Arceon’s Carbeon materials serves to bridge the gap between research and industry, capable of handling extreme temperatures and thermal shock among other properties for defense, space and beyond.

Dutch startup Arceon is working with leaders in space, hypersonics and industry to test its Carbeon CMC, validating near-net-shape parts with <3% porosity and performance at 1600ºC, targeting UHTCMC and a presence in the U.S. in 2025.

New architecture, incorporating high-temperature CMC and electronics, could power efficient hypersonic vehicles with longer range that exceeds Mach 5.

Polaris welcomes new shareholder Dienes Holding supporting the German startup’s path to spaceflight, hypersonics commercialization.

Stratolaunch takes one step closer to hypersonic flight with the demo of a clean and safe separation of its Talon-A vehicle from the Roc aircraft platform.

German aerospace startup prepares next demonstrators toward reusable space launch and hypersonic transport toward routine, low-cost and safe access to space.
