Hangzhou Shalom EO offers Hot-pressed magnesium fluoride or MgF2 domes optimized for missiles and launch tubes. Hot-pressed Magnesium Fluoride (MgF2) is a favorable option as the IR material to manufacture MWIR domes, with its dominating prevalence attributing to high infrared transmittance at the range of 2-7.5μm, small thermal expansion coefficient, good mechanical properties, and low fabrication cost.
