X-MAT introduces X-FOAM: A game-changing ceramic foam for extreme environments
Orlando, FL (SPX) Dec 01, 2025
X-MAT has announced the release of X-FOAM, a 1,300°C ceramic foam engineered for use in harsh environments demanding high thermal insulation and structural performance. This machinable ceramic foam has a thermal conductivity of only 0.034 W/m·K, on par with some aerogel products; but is stiff and hard, with a compressive strength in the hundreds to thousands of PSI. It is also very light, with a density of only 0.15g/cc, seven times less dense than water.
