Product overview

Ultra-low thermal expansion ceramics

NEXCERA®
NEXCERA® is a ultra-low thermal expansion ceramic with a cordierite (2MgO-2Al2O3-5SiO2) base. It is characterized by demonstrating the zero expansion at near room temperatures, and has higher strength and toughness than low thermal expansion glass. This enables applications in designs more complicated than could be achieved previously.
