Over the past several years, Victrex's LMPAEK has increasingly found its place as the material of choice in the development of sustainable aerospace parts and structures. Processability, weldability and the material properties that come with using a polymer in the PAEK family make Victrex LMPAEK polymer a technology-enabling solution. The potential solutions that LMPAEK materials can provide don’t just sit within structural parts or aircraft interiors. They also include structural thermal runaway protection, lightning strike protection, heat sinking applications, and complex bracketry. LMPAEK material-based solutions like unidirectional tapes, films and compounds are well positioned to address sustainability and future challenges. These material forms facilitate the use of automation and high-rate production techniques while doing so with low environmental impact, reduced weight and reduced system costs that transportation markets require.
