Advantages of PPSU rods and boards in aerospace applications

Lightweight:

PPSU rods and boards offer a weight reduction of up to 40% compared to traditional materials such as aluminum or steel. This can lead to significant fuel savings and increased efficiency.

High strength and durability:

PPSU is highly resistant to impact, heat and chemicals. It has excellent mechanical properties and can withstand extreme temperatures, making it ideal for use in challenging aerospace environments.

Corrosion-resistant:

PPSU is highly resistant to corrosion, making it an excellent choice for use in humid or corrosive environments.

Easy to machine:

PPSU is easy to machine and can be easily formed into complex shapes. This makes it ideal for use in a range of aerospace components such as brackets, housings, and connectors.

Applications of PPSU rods and boards in aerospace:

PPSU rods and boards are used in a range of aerospace applications such as:

Structural components:

PPSU rods and boards are used in structural components such as fuselage frames, wing spars, and landing gear components.

Electrical components:

PPSU is an excellent electrical insulator and is used in electrical components such as connectors, switch housings, and wiring harnesses.

Interior components:

PPSU rods and boards are used in interior components such as seats, tray tables, and overhead bins due to their lightweight and durable properties.
