The real UHTCMCs producer
Next Generation Ceramic Composite
K3RX carbon-ceramic components are manufactured to meet design and technical requirements of our customers and are intended for high-tech applications. These innovative materials provide significantly superior performance compared to conventional ones, offering exceptional durability even under extreme operating conditions. Thanks to their high thermal and mechanical resistance, K3RX products set a benchmark for the future of space and aeronautical technologies.
K3RX carbon-ceramics are hybrid composites that combine the best qualities of UHTCs (Ultra-High Temperature Ceramics) and CMCs (Ceramic Matrix Composites): able to face temperatures beyond 2000°C with near zero erosion.

UHTCMC
type Alfa
Manufactured through an advanced sintering process, these materials achieve the highest possible structural density, ensuring unrivaled resistance to erosion and ablation. This is the mandatory choice for the most critical components such as rocket nozzle inserts and parts subjected to extreme thermal and mechanical stress.
UHTCMC
type Beta
This material system combines the extreme thermal resilience and design freedom. Thanks to the pyrolysis technique, we can shape the material into complex geometries, curved surfaces, and details that other manufacturing methods cannot achieve.
