Superior Materials for Military & Commercial Applications
At ASCM, we manufacture three products that can be customized to your specifications:
CVC SiC® – This high-purity, ultra-high temperature material is ideal for use in telescopes, optical applications and extreme environments. It is available in thicknesses ranging from 1mm to 75mm in a variety of shapes and sizes. Our unmatched combination of quality and flexibility make us your supplier of choice for optical grade, robust SiC.
Advantages of CVC SiC®
- Purity greater than 99.99% (less than 5 ppm total)
- Rapid growth rate (>5x CVD SiC)
- Near net shaping (conformal deposition)
- Diameters – up to 1500 mm
- Inherently low stress
- Low or high resistivity
- High stiffness with low CTE
- Dimensional stability
- Inherently radiation hard
- Associated rad hard and space hard coatings
- Directly polishable
OMNI SiCTM (CVD SiC) – With a purity level that sets it apart, our OMNI SiC™ (CVD SiC) is ideal for use in Semiconductor manufacturing and silicon wafer processing. This material has excellent chemical resistance, outstanding machinability, high thermal conductivity, and long wear life. OMNI SiC™ is available in thicknesses ranging from less than 1mm to 15mm.
Advantages of OMNI SiCTM
- Purity greater than 99.99% (less than 5 ppm total)
- Low or high resistivity
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Diameters – 500 mm
- Outstanding machinability
- High thermal conductivity
- Superior corrosion resistance
- Long wear life
HoneySiC® – This lightweight wafer technology is exceptionally strong, making it ideal for use in microchips and complementary structures. We provide HoneySiC® in thicknesses ranging from less than 1mm to hundreds of millimeters with purity on par with our CVC® and Omni SiC™.
