High Temperature Ceramics

Aircraft engine applications involve exposure to oxidizing fuels, heating and corrosive sources.
All non-oxide materials used on engines will undergo oxidation and form some combination of
solid, liquid or gaseous reaction to these environmental conditions. It is this oxidation behavior that can cause detrimental effects on engine parts.
Special high temperature Silica Ceramics with good chemical stability and strength at high temperature oxidizing environments are used on XR Black Edition® VII engines to increase heat dispersion and enhance parts performance. Engine parts are pneumatic plastic shot peened, degassed to remove any contaminants, a conversion coating is applied and final coated with a specially formulated XR Black Edition® VII Black Silica Ceramics. Materials are oil, fuel and corrosion resistant, and can withstand high temperatures.
