Abstract
The General Electric Company (GE) is a global technology company involved in a broad range of businesses relying heavily on advanced materials and manufacturing technologies. This chapter focuses on three advanced technologies: (i) ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), a revolutionary materials technology for aircraft engines and industrial gas turbines, (ii) polymer matrix composite (PMC) fan blades for aircraft engines, primarily for weight reduction, and (iii) NaMx batteries that rely very heavily on ceramics for their efficient operation.
