We provide composite materials and structural adhesives manufactured by SYENSQO Composite Materials Segment, (Formerly known as Cytec Engineered Materials Inc.), separated from Solvay. These composite materials are mainly used for the fuselage, wings, structural parts and interior of the aircraft. The materials are cured into parts by Japanese manufacturers and then supplied to major overseas aircraft manufacturers.
The composite materials are classified as below.
・"Carbon prepreg" made of resin + carbon fiber reinforced
・"Glass prepreg" made of resin + glass fiber reinforced
・"Kevlar prepreg" made of resin + Kevlar fiber reinforced
These prepregs made of fiber-reinforced (plastic) sheets, will be plied in many layers and cured under high temperature and pressure to become aircraft parts with light weight and high durability.
Structural adhesives having a uniform thickness such like a very thin film sheet provides very strong bonding strength that is demanded for aircraft structures. By sandwiching adhesives between thin aluminum sheets, the final aluminum parts will satisfy light weight requirement with also improved stiffness strength. Composite materials and structural adhesives are used in various parts for commercial aircrafts, military aircrafts and launch vehicles, and they are highly evaluated from their countless and various accomplishments also contributing to CO2 reduction by aircraft weight reduction. These materials are used widely not only in aerospace category but also in industrial category, and its demand is expected to increase continuously in the future.
