[Case Study] Asteroid Explorer "Hayabusa2" Adopts Our MMC Components

By impregnating ceramics with metal, we achieve resistance to cracking. This is a new lightweight and high-rigidity material. Its adoption is advancing for improved performance of devices.

It is a composite material made by impregnating aluminum into a SiC ceramic porous body. With the lightness of aluminum and the rigidity of iron, it is a material that also excels in thermal properties. Taking advantage of these features, our MMC was installed on the asteroid explorer "Hayabusa2." In addition, we also offer composite materials that are produced by adding reinforcing ceramic materials to aluminum using casting methods. Please refer to the comprehensive catalog below.

Welcome to the homepage of Japan Fine Ceramics.

basic information

Our MMC (Metal Matrix Composites) is a composite material made of metal and ceramics, characterized by lightweight high rigidity, low thermal expansion, and high thermal conductivity. It combines the lightness of aluminum with the rigidity of iron, making it an excellent material in terms of thermal properties. Our MMC is a new material that is increasingly being adopted in response to the acceleration and high output of equipment. If you have any concerns regarding equipment design, component design, or thermal design, please feel free to consult us.
