Spectrum Defense Coatings Blog
Welcome to the Spectrum Defense Coatings blog, where we break down how real-world aerospace and high-performance programs use advanced coatings to solve corrosion, wear, thermal, and environmental challenges. Here you’ll find practical, engineering-focused articles on Cerakote ceramic coating, heat-dissipating coatings, electric barrier and conductive systems, low-reflective and high-temp coatings, powder coating, and hydrographic coating—written to help you specify coatings with confidence.
Cerakote Thin-Film Coatings for Aerospace & High-Performance Parts
Learn how Cerakote thin-film coatings deliver corrosion, wear, and chemical resistance for aerospace and high-performance parts while keeping film build, weight, and critical tolerances under control.
Aerogel Coatings for Aerospace Applications
Aerogel coatings have garnered significant attention in recent years due to their exceptional thermal insulation properties. These lightweight, porous materials can reduce heat transfer by up to 99%, making them an attractive option for aerospace applications.
Extreme-Temperature & Reusable TPS / Engine Coatings for Next-Gen Aerospace
Learn how advanced thermal barrier and ultra-high temperature coatings protect engines, leading edges, and reusable TPS hardware in extreme aerospace environments—improving spallation resistance, erosion performance, and the number of cycles between overhauls.
