Chemical vapor infiltration of carbon-carbon structures (reentry heat shields, rocket nozzles, and other aerospace components). [Pg.193]

Industrial applications of PEEK take advantage of the outstanding thermal properties, and include use in high-performance automotive and aerospace components, and in printed circuit boards. [Pg.17]

One of the unique issues in the development of advanced-performance materials is that they are very product-specific, and their development requires expensive prototype iteration and performance testing. The product development is people- and design-intensive and usually results in a niche market for the material that is, the specific product slate for which the material has been designed and tested. Many of the applications are in high-tech industrial products like aerospace components, so the total volume of material used will be small. Thus, attractive commercialization schemes require that the material have intrinsic value that will justify a high margin, or there must be a product application for which the value can be captured in the end product.

The most important applications of nickel metal involve its use in numerous alloys. Such alloys are used to construct various equipment, reaction vessels, plumbing parts, missile, and aerospace components. Such nickel-based alloys include Monel, Inconel, HasteUoy, Nichrome, Duranickel, Udinet, Incoloy and many other alloys under various other trade names. The metal itself has some major uses. Nickel anodes are used for nickel plating of many base metals to enhance their resistance to corrosion. Nickel-plated metals are used in various equipment, machine parts, printing plates, and many household items such as scissors, keys, clips, pins, and decorative pieces. Nickel powder is used as porous electrodes in storage batteries and fuel cells. [Pg.606]

Among the nonferrous tungsten alloys, its alloys with copper and silver are used as electrical contacts and switches and with molybdenum in aerospace components. [Pg.949]

The resulting poly(oxy-1,4-phenylene sulfonyl-1,4-phenylene) (PES), CAS 25667-42-9, is a valuable polymer used to make various household appliances, medical devices, automotive parts, etc. The polymer can be shaped by thermoforming and is used in various composite materials. It has good fire safety characteristics and meets the requirements for direct food contact. Other polyethersulfones with structures similar to PES also have important practical applications and are used for the manufacturing of different appliances, cookware, automotive and aerospace components, etc. [Pg.580]

Defects such as voids, dry spots, resin-rich areas, premature failures, localized failure regions and non-uniform or incomplete cures can occur. Most aerospace components are held to within 2% weight tolerance and for strength, an excessive variation can result in uneven stress distribution, resulting in component failure. [Pg.60]

Dow-United Technologies Composite Products Inc (Dow-UT), Wallingford, Connecticut, developed an advanced resin transfer molding (AdvRTM) process for production of complex and flight-critical airframe and engine structures in RPs. The process has been further developed to improve the quality of RP aerospace components substantially at the point where two or more sections are molded together. A patented technique of shaped unidirectional fiber preforms... [Pg.315]

As reviewed in conventional RTM, the preform is placed into a closed, matched tool and resin is injected under pressure about 100 to 200 psi (0.69 to 1.38 MPa). Early RTM processes lacked the consistency needed for aerospace components, in both dimensional tolerances and mechanical properties. Fiber volume fractions were significantly lower than the 60 to 65 wt% typical of prepregs. Problems with predicting flow fironts as well as flaws that were introduced into the preform when closing the matched metal molds often led to high void contents and dry spots. [Pg.318]

MAJOR APPLICATIONS High temperature applications, industrial and chemical processing equipment, bearings and gears, aerospace components, appliance and plumbing parts, electrical/electronics applications such as cormectors, under-hood automobile applications, packaging. [Pg.207]

Aramid fiber finds varied applications in aircraft and aerospace components because of its low density. This light weight is also advantageous in the fabrication of laminated canoes and kayaks. Other aramid fiber sport applications include downhill skis, tennis racquets, and golf shafts. [Pg.156]

One approach for fabricating fiber reinforced ceramic matrix composites is the directed oxidation of metals, a process first introduced by Lanxide Corporation [1, 2] and later used successfully to produce turbine engine and aerospace components. Rights to the DIMOX technology, as it was identified, were ultimately acquired by Power Systems Composites, L.L.C., a subsidiary of the Power Systems business of the General Electric Company.
