AIREX®R82

Product Details


DESCRIPTION

AIREX® R82 is a closed-cell, thermoplastic polymer foam that combines outstanding fire resistance with very low smoke and toxicity, along withexcellent dielectric properties.It has an outstanding strength to weight ratio, very low moistureabsorption, is thermoformable and ductile.
AIREX® R82 is an exceptional core material for use in structural lightweight applications that demand high fireresistance, radar transparency or operation in extremely hot or cold environments.

CHARACTERISTICS:

 Fulfills most stringent fire requirements
 Operating temperature from -194 °C to +160 °C (-317 °F to +320 °F)
 Remains ductile at cryogenic temperatures
 Excellent dielectric properties (radar outstanding transparency)
 Very low moisture absorption
 Good fatigue resistance
 High impact resistance (non-brittle failure mode)
 Thermoformable
 Good sound and thermal insulation

APPLICATIONS:

Aircraft and Aerospace: Interiors, cockpit doors, cryogenic tanks, insulating panels, radomes, helicopter
rotor blades, general aviation (fuselage and wing)
Road and Rail: Front-ends, side skirts, roof panels, interiors
Marine: Fast-ferries, fire resistant interiors, radomes
 
Defense: Naval superstructures, antennas, combat communication systems
Industrial: High temperature tooling, radomes, x-ray tables
 

 

PROCESSING:

 Adhesive bonding
 Thermoformable
 Pre-preg processing (up to 180 °C, 355 °F)
 Hot press molding
 Thermoplastic processable
 Automated tape laying (ATL/CTL)
