This specification establishes the acceptance criteria and inspection requirements for adhesive-bonded sandwich structures including the metal-to-metal bonding found in these structures.
This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) describes a manufacturing method for processing unidirectional graphite fiber/epoxy resin impregnated sheet and tape into multi-ply broadgoods and tape produced on an automated cross-plying machine. Broadgoods or tape of two or more ply configurations may be processed, where ply orientations of 0°, 45°, 90°, and 135° (as examples) may be automatically layed in a programmed sequence. In all configurations, the 0° ply direction is parallel to the length of the broadgoods roll or sheet, or tape.
This specification covers nylon-cloth-reinforced acrylonitrile-butadiene (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet and of shapes molded and cured from partly cured sheet.
This specification covers molded or extruded bar, rod, and shapes produced from a polyamide-imide (PAI) polymer filled with 12% graphite and 3% polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). This is designated as Grade 3 material per AMS3670.
This specification covers molded or extruded bar, rod, and shapes produced from a polyamide-imide (PAI) polymer filled with 30% glass fiber. This is designated as Grade 4 material per AMS3670.
This specification covers molded or extruded bar, rod, and shapes produced from a polyamide-imide polymer filled with 30% carbon fiber. This is designated as Grade 5 material per AMS3670.
This specification covers an unfilled polyamide-imide plastic in the form of molded or extruded bar, rod, and shapes. This is designated as Grade 2 material per AMS3670.
This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers batch qualification procedure for virgin and compounded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resins used for compression molding. AS9100 requires virgin and modified PTFE as a testing material be representative of production PTFE and/or parts. The testing specified herein is limited to tensile strength, elongation and specific gravity. Any other tests required by the purchaser must be specified separately.
