Product description

Controlled expansion alloy transit receive module replacing titanium (Ti) for use in aircraft

Application area

Aerospace

CE alloys used

CE11 controlled expansion alloy

Material replaced

Ti with Cu-Mo heat spreaders

Advantages of using CE11

• 50% weight saving
• 6 times thermal conductivity of titanium (Ti)
• Fewer manufacturing steps (no Cu-Mo heat sinks are required)
• Ease of plating using standard techniques similar to aluminium
