Huntsman’s versatile adhesives, composites,```````` edge and void fillers are used by aircraft manufacturers who serve commercial airlines, general aviation and the defense industry throughout the world. Our products are used in a wide range of applications ranging from honeycomb reinforcement, edge sealing, insert potting or bonding, panel forming, component bonding and laminating.
In our efforts to develop innovative solutions for the aerospace market, we strive to meet the high product standards set forth by the industry and federal regulations that govern the performance properties of materials used in aircraft: strength, weight, toughness, flexibility, low coefficient of thermal expansion, high resistance to corrosion and fatigue, flame retardancy, halogen-free formulations, noise and vibrational damping.
Our solutions help unlock production bottlenecks by improving productivity without compromising technical performance.
Our materials meet stringent mechanical requirements while offering a variety of compressive strength and density options, allowing for the lightest weight selection.
By reducing the number of joining and finishing operations, the overall production cycle can be reduced. This saves on labor costs and results in improved productivity.
Our adhesives offer even distribution of load over a bonded area, reducing the number of drilled holes and limiting points of entry for corrosion and stress.
Many of our products are flame retardant and exhibit the low flame, smoke and toxicity characteristics required to comply with established regulations governing materials used in large civil and commercial aircraft.
Our products are designed to comply with regional environmental regulations. Our global manufacturing footprint, local technical support and commercial teams ensure both close proximity with our customers and security of supply.
