Secondary Structural Materials for Aerospace

Picture
Secondary Structural Materials for Aerospace enable light-weighting of designs without compromising the integrity of the parts. BASF's broad portfolio of structural materials provides solutions such as impact resistance, high temperature panels, and foams which are non-delaminating, fire-resistant, and recyclable. BASF also has quick curing epoxy products which can address noise and vibration, as well as high strength concrete systems for runways.

Lightweight Composite Materials


Divinycell F by Diab
Lightweight core materials made from Ultrason an alternative to honeycomb.

Ultrason All Thermoplastic Panel
Recyclable alternative to honeycomb core panels providing weight, time, and labor savings. FST & OSU Compliant.

Ultrason Reinforced Thermoplastic Laminate
Ultrason polyethersulfones for injection molding and extrusion applications are recyclable and light weight. Carbon fiber reinforced parts can be used as structural materials in applications requiring high strength and impact resistance. These materials offer significant strength to weight advantages over aluminum.

Ultrason Semi-Finished Products
Non-delaminating sheets, reinforced thermoplastic laminates (RTL) and unidirectional (UD) tapes.

Polyurethane (PU) Applications


Structural Foam and Load Bearing Floors
Structural foam made of PU can help reduce weight while maintaining structural strength and integrity. Using BASF rigid polyurethane foam systems formulated to meet FAR 25.853, our prototype sandwich panel provides significant weight savings over traditional aluminum flooring while supporting a 4,200 psi compressive load. 40% lighter.​

Composite Protection


Tinuvin CarboProtect Advanced UV Absorber Technology
Unmatched photo-oxidative stability enables thinner, more durable and transparent coating.

Ultrason E 2020 P, P SR and P SR Micro
Amorphous high-performance thermoplastics, functioning as heat-resistant impact modifiers in thermoset resins and composites.

Powder Injection Molding


Catamold Metal/Ceramic Injection Molding
Economical fabrication of highly complex ceramic and metal parts to near net shape.

Runway Materials & Solutions


Concrete Additives
Resistant to aviation fuels and deicing fluids, our high load systems provide quick early strength.
