Advanced Material for oxide CMCs: White Paper

Why do fine 4N Alumina and Mullite solutions determine the outstanding performance of Ox/Ox CMCs?

Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) are redefining the limits of what advanced materials can achieve — from aerospace engines and automotive heat shields to thermal protection systems. Among them, oxide/oxide (Ox/Ox) composites stand out for their exceptional thermal stability, strength, and corrosion resistance. The quality of a final CMC always starts with one critical step: powder and slurry formulation.

🔍 But what is an outstanding matrix & how is a slurry formulated for an Ox/Ox CMC of high quality? 

In our latest white paper, Baikowski® shares its extensive R&D insights and industrial know-how. We highlight our submicron alumina and mullite powders and show how tailored chemical compositions, dopants (such as nanozirconia), and ready-to-use forms (spray-dried or slurries) can unlock next-generation performance.
