K-GenesisX will exhibit at the SPACE SUPPLIERS SUMMIT Nagoya, held at Port Messe Nagoya on September 25–26, 2025.
This international business event focuses on the manufacturing supply chain for space-related equipment, a sector expected to grow rapidly within the expanding space industry.
At our booth, we will showcase NEXCERA™, a cordierite-based ultra-low thermal expansion ceramic developed through Krosaki Harima’s fine ceramics expertise, as well as Sialon, a high-performance ceramic material with a proven track record in structural components such as optical benches for satellite telescopes.

NEXCERA™
Key Features
- Near-Zero Thermal Expansion: NEXCERA™ exhibits near-zero expansion around room temperature, ensuring exceptional dimensional stability.
- Outstanding Long-Term and Thermal Stability: The material maintains its shape and size over time and under thermal cycling, with excellent reproducibility of thermal expansion and dimensional characteristics.
- High Specific Stiffness and Lightweight Design: Compared to conventional low thermal expansion glass (LTEG), NEXCERA™ offers approximately 1.5 times greater stiffness, enabling lightweight and rigid structural designs.
These properties make NEXCERA™ an ideal material for high-precision mirrors used in optical telescopes for space applications.
Advantages of NEXCERA™
- Suppresses thermal deformation due to its extremely low coefficient of thermal expansion.
- Enables lightweight structural design thanks to its high stiffness.
- Contributes to energy efficiency through mass reduction.
