What material used in aircraft wing construction?
Depending on the aircraft, the wings can be made of Steel (Only older planes), Wood (REALLY old planes), Aluminum (Common today), Or Carbon Fiber (used in Military jets)
What does a composite laminator do?
A composite laminator . a composite technician can laminate a multitude of materials together by the use of adhesives The main material people recognise is fibreglass. Generally the fibreglass is laid into a mould , a determined quantity of resin is used to wet out the glass then another layer of glass and resin is added. The air bubbles are removed from between and the item is left to harden. This is the lamination This is a simplified version of what a composite laminator does. Technicians use a multitude of materials and resins with many varied techniques to produce many items in the aeronautical industry, for example laminating of metal, carbon fibres, kevlar and basically anything that the adhesive will bond to. the two main resins used are polyester with MEKP being used as a catylyst or epoxies that use a hardener. Some of the items manufactured are flaps , radomes, fairing but not limiting to aircraft themselves. Example of aircraft manufactured are the majority of gliders in use today but there are powered types ie The Rutan Varieze and the Long EZ home builts These powered aircraft can be manufactured by just about any experienced composite technician .
Materials used to seal joints steam pipes?
it will be depend on the application, however following material are generaly used for pipe sealing -asbestos sheed - PTFE -composite sheet(Rubber+asbestos)
What is detection antenna housing called?
The housing used for a detection antenna is called a radome. This type of housing is made from transparent material, which is often found on the outer surface of an aircraft.
What size you beam will used 60 feet span roof?
That is not a simple anwer. It depends on the roof design and how many, and where the load points are, and the material of the beam(wood, metal, composite). See a structural engineer.
What composite material is commonly used on aircraft body panel?
An alloy of aluminium is used usually magnellium
What is the alloy used to make the main aircraft body on an aeroplane?
The main alloy used to make the aircraft body is aluminum alloy. This material is favored for its lightweight properties, high strength, and corrosion resistance, which are essential qualities for constructing aircraft. Other materials such as titanium and composite materials are also used in certain parts of the aircraft body.
What material is used to making the aircraft spring?
Steel is used to make aircraft springs.
What is composite material and its composition in b-2 bomber?
A composite material is a material made up of two or more distinct components that combine to create a new material with enhanced properties. In the B-2 bomber, the primary composite material used is a carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer, which consists of carbon fibers embedded in a polymer matrix. This material is valued for its strength-to-weight ratio, making the aircraft lighter and more agile.
What metal used in aircraft body construction?
Mostly aluminium alloys, but some aircraft have used steel, titanium and more recently, composite materials.
What is the highest termperature composite material?
The carbon-carbon composite material used for the nose and leading edges of the wings on the space shuttle is probably the composite material designed to withstand the highest temperatures. This material is able to retain its mechanical properties at temperatures of 2000ºC.
What used in airplanes besides metal?
Modern aircraft have many plastics, ceramics and composite materials in them.
What material is used to consturct the aileron the flaps and the slats of an aircraft?
It depends on the general construction of the aircraft. Commonly used material are: aluminum, wood, cloth, and fiberglass. BTW, what are slats??
Which material is used for large aircraft bodywork?
Mostly aluminium.
What is hybrid composite?
A plastic composite is a material that has a polymer or plastic as the matrix reinforced with another material - usually a fiber. So CFRP - Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic is one such example. These materials are used on newer aircraft such as the Airbus A380 and the Boeing Dreamliner 787. There are other examples including polyesters with galss fiber. These are known as GFRP - Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic.
What composite material is fairly widely used in industrial applications?
Glass reinforced polyester resin.
What types of resin that use in an aircraft?
There are three main types of resin, known as Advanced Composite Materials (ACM), used in aircraft production. The three resins used in aircraft are Polymer Matrix Composites (PMCs), Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs), and Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs).
