Space Polymer Simulation Software
By Dr. Roozbeh Dargazany, Ph.D., Michigan State University | 2nd most-cited author in rubber aging globally
The space environment is unforgiving. Radiation, thermal cycling, and vacuum exposure degrade polymers rapidly—causing failure in electronic packaging, insulation, and structural components. At the same time, radiation shielding adds mass, reducing payload efficiency and increasing launch costs. Karax enables space polymer simulation software that predicts how materials behave in orbit—so you can design radiation-resistant, lightweight, and mission-ready systems without overdesign.
Know whether your polymer components will survive space before launch.

Our Space Solutions
The harsh climate in space makes it easy for devices to malfunction, while radiation shielding adds unnecessary mass to spacecrafts. Electronic components that are radiation resistant and tolerant are therefore essential for space applications.
Karax can create remedies for space-based uses like:
RF systems for space communications and remote sensing imaging technologies for space-based surveillance, navigation, and defense solutions for power management for satellites and spacecraft, including nanosatellites.
