SABIC lancia la lastra LEXAN™ termoformabile per ottenere eccellenti prestazioni prestazioni in relazione a fiamma, fumi e tossicità nonché l'opacità per le tendine oscuranti degli aerei

La lastra LEXAN™ XHR 5000 di SABIC>SEATTLE, Washington, 27 settembre 2012 - Per aiutare i clienti del settore aerospaziale globale a conformarsi agli standard sempre più stringenti relativi alle prestazioni in termini di fiamma, fumi e tossicità (FST) dei componenti interni degli aeromobili, l'unità aziendale Innovative Plastics di SABIC ha presentato oggi la lastra LEXAN™ XHR 5000 (a rilascio di calore estremamente lento) di nuova generazione per le tendine oscuranti degli aerei. La lastra LEXAN XHR 5000, esposta presso lo stand N. 828 di SABIC della fiera Aircraft Interiors, è stata progettata per i sistemi oscuranti multistrato che necessitano di proprietà avanzate in termini di FST e di opacità. Questa soluzione leader del settore non soddisfa soltanto i rigorosi requisiti di sicurezza, ma contribuisce anche a migliorare il comfort dell'ambiente di cabina grazie all'elevata qualità del suo aspetto e alle superiori proprietà di oscuramento. I continui investimenti che SABIC effettua nelle avanzate tecnologie dei materiali per il settore aerospaziale dimostrano l'impegno profuso dall'azienda nell'aiutare i clienti che producono aeromobili a rispettare normative sempre più complesse, ad ampliare in maniera determinante le opzioni di progettazione per la termoformatura, a migliorare l'estetica e ad arricchire l'esperienza di volo dei clienti.
