CFRP

The JEFSOL EC-50 solvent ethylene
carbonate is based on cyclic organic esters
produced by reacting ethylene oxide,
propylene or butylene oxide with carbon dioxide.
For a high degree of polymerization, the
ratio between polyester polyols and the
BCA A637 hardener can reach 50/50%.
Lowell University conducted research
on stiff, highly damping thermoplastic
polyurethane nanolaminates [14]. The
interface between layers used low-silicate nanocomposites.
The water-absorbing bottom layer was designed from polybutadiene resin film [15].

Conclusions
The use of a traditional infusion/vacuum process is more suitable for large
aviation parts and less expensive than
braiding technology. A multifunctional
hybrid fuselage was created using multifunctional materials designed to protect
the fuselage from lightning strikes while
ensuring vibration damping and sound
absorption. A lattice mesh netting reinforcement and thermoplastic skins were
used to improve this package.
