Description

ATC Materials has developed a silicon nitride radome material called reduced density injection moldable pressureless sintered silicon nitride based on ATC's pre ceramic binder technology and previous nitride ceramic work. The goal of the proposed work for Phase I is to further refine and optimize the material formulation and to further characterize the material for radome applications. ATC will also, as part of the Phase I option, mold subscale radomes and begin to develop conversion/burnout and sintering processes for the subscale radomes.
