The Optical Properties Measurements Database is a centralized resource for accurate, measurements of material optical characteristics, including solar reflectance, thermal emittance, transmittance, hemispherical directional reflectance, and BRDF/BTDF.
Developed to support engineers, scientists, and designers working in high-performance applications—from aerospace and defense to energy and materials science—this database provides standardized, high-quality data collected using calibrated instrumentation in controlled laboratory settings.
Silicon Carbide
Silicon carbide (SiC) is a super-hard, high-performance material known for its excellent thermal, mechanical, and electrical properties. It’s especially valuable in extreme environments where other materials would fail.
