Several examples of materials and processes developed for combustion chamber in the HM7 (cryogenic engine of the third stage of the Ariane 4 launcher) and Vulcain (Ariane 5 engine) programs are presented. The materials must work in extreme temperature conditions (20 to 3500K) and constraints, as well as in particularly aggressive (hydrogen and oxygen) environments. Of particular interest are the ceramic matrix composite materials developed.
