Carbon Foam Lightweight Mirror Applications

Left Quote

CFOAM® CARBON FOAM IS EASILY SHAPED TO THE DESIRED OPTICAL SURFACE CONFIGURATION AND READILY ACCEPTS A VARIETY OF SURFACE COATING MATERIALS.

Because of its unique combination of mechanical and thermal properties, CFOAM® carbon foam offers high potential as a material for lightweight mirrors used in space-based telescopes and high power lasers.

In addition to its low coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) and high specific stiffness, CFOAM® carbon foam can be produced with a high thermal conductivity, which facilitates cooling and minimizes distortion due to temperature changes.
