Toughened Thin Ply Composites for Aerospace Applications. MIP: North Thin Ply Technology Sàrl

Abstract (German)

Aerospace is by far the most strategic market for composites today as it has the largest value and is growing rapidly. Thin-ply technology has proven to improve dramatically key properties of composite materials such as onset of damage but still lack a sufficient toughness to be considered by commercial aircraft manufacturers. The scope of this project is to develop a new toughened thin-ply composite that will meet and exceed the current and future aerospace requirements.
