Radar Absorption

Up to 98% of Radar Cross Section Reduction (RCS)

Blackleaf is breaking with conventional radar-stealth approaches by offering a lightweight, broadband, modular, and highly integrable solution based on graphene-functionalized spheres or coatings—where traditional materials such as ferrites or carbon black impose heavy, rigid, and inefficient compromises on modern platforms.

2.3Why it matters

Blackleaf brings 1 single, standard universal material on the table

Current radar stealth forces a compromise : protection or performance. Legacy coatings are too heavy, too narrow-band, and too rigid—leaving exploitable vulnerabilities on the platforms that need stealth most.

Multi-band protection (X, C, S, L, Ku) through a single solution
Real-world stability: thermal, UV, humidity, and shock resistance
Greater design freedom: treat normally inaccessible internal zones
Reduce custom RAM part machining/molding
No need of assembly or adjustment on complex geometries

Blackleaf Services

De-risk R&D. Accelerate demonstrators

Integration support, from concept to demonstrator.
Measured performance, for field constraints.
