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.
