Abstract

On March 7, 2024, Arkema announced it had completed the first aeronautical structure made of thermoplastic composites. This was a result from the strategic partnership between Hexcel and Arkema. The high-performance thermoplastic composite structure was designed and manufactured using HexPly® thermoplastic tapes. These aerospace-grade materials are developed from Arkema's Kepstan® PEKK resin and Hexcel HexTow® AS7 and IM7 carbon fibers. The demonstrator project was carried out as part of the collaborative project known as HAICoPAS.
