High-Flying Polymers

High-Flying Polymers

In aeronautics, weight is directly proportional to fuel consumption, so every single gram counts, making lightweight construction a particularly crucial issue when building aircraft. Rising jet fuel prices plus the urgent necessity of reducing emissions are of ever increasing significance and a great deal of attention is given to safety, reliability and cost effectiveness when planning fittings for aircraft interiors and choosing materials to make them from. Lightweight but tough and flexible materials are the key to success.
