| Customer: Various |  | HPS Germany has opened a new product line, i.e. MLI (Multi-layer insulation). The manufacturing is located in Portugal (HPS Portugal). Thus, very cost efficient routes and short delivery times can be provided, while in parallel the globally commonly used raw material foils (from the international standard suppliers) and state of the art stacking processes will be applied. |

| Customer: ESA/ESTEC (2003 – 2006) |  | Smart TPS can be defined as systems able to "feel" an applied thermo-mechanical environment and to change their basic properties to "react or adapt" to the environment. More than 30 concepts have been identified, around 5 concepts have been assessed in more detail, and 1 concept has been breadboarded and tested. This was an adaptive paint which protects the cold structure in case of failure of the hot ceramic cover shingles of a space re-entry vehicle. |

| Customer: ESA/ESTEC (2007 – 2008) |  | Epoxy matrices in combination with carbon nano-material improves the thermal conductivity between an electronic chip and its substrate. In addition the thermal expansion coefficient will be reduced considerably. This study shall tailor the present material to that specific application. |
