Investigation of Reinforced Plastics for Naval Aircraft Electromagnetic (EM) Windows.

Abstract

Polymer and fiber materials for naval radome applications were investigated. Primary emphasis was on polybutadiene polymers, with various other classes of polymers including thermoplastics being investigated as secondary candidates. Secondary resin candidates, which included polysulfones, polyimides, polyphenyl-quinoxalines, and polyamide-imides, were evaluated. Primary candidate fiber reinforcement materials were Astroquartz and Kevlar 49. (Author, modified-PL)
