High Temperature Properties

Saint Gobain

The single phase composition of Hexoloy® SE SiC enables it to reliably perform in air at temperatures in excess of 1650˚C (3000˚F).

Military Ceramics

Where dimensional changes at high temperature are a concern, Hexoloy® SE SiC has a consistently low coefficient of thermal expansion. This feature allows design flexibility for shrink fit or leak-tight joint applications. Because of its high thermal conductivity and low coefficient of thermal expansion, it is very resistant to thermal shock and will survive rapid thermal cycling as compared to other materials.
