Alpharetta, Georgia, USA, May 15 2019 --- Solvay is looking forward to engaging with SAMPE visitors on its industrialization strategy:
-
Cost-efficient thermoset and thermoplastic materials developed for high rate, composite manufacturing.
-
See two examples of composite structures using Solvay's thermoplastic materials for aerospace, with a welded fuselage demonstrator from GKN Fokker and a structural fitting from Greene Tweed.
-
We will also display press cured thermosets for aerospace structural components. Two papers will be presented on the manufacture of these parts at the event:
-
“Novel Prepreg System for Press Molding” : May 22nd, 3:20 - 3:40 pm, room 208A.
-
“Spring Frame Press Fabrication of Aerospace Production Components”: May 22nd, 2:30 - 2:55 pm, room 208B. We are proud to share that our paper has won the 3rd Place in the Outstanding Technical Paper Awards for SAMPE 2019.
