Plasma's targeted NASA application is the Orion ACM program and launch abort systems for current and future missions. Other NASA applications include In Space Propulsion components for attitude control, orbit maintenance, repositioning of satellites/spacecraft, reaction control systems, hypersonic vehicle hot structure control surface actuation rod/support attachment, descent/ascent engines, nuclear power/propulsion, and reusable launch vehicle propulsion applications.
Both government and commercial entities in the following sectors use advanced high-temperature materials for the following applications: coatings, defense, material R&D, nuclear power, aeronautics, aerospace, propulsion, and automotive. Plasma's targeted commercial applications include joining composites to metals for aircraft composite components, thermal protection systems, rocket nozzles, heat pipes, and propulsion subcomponents.
