Partnership will lean on Airbus’s satellites and helicopters expertise, supporting innovators to advance aerospace-related projects with positive environmental impact.
Bringing on Syensqo as its main materials and technological partner, Swiss explorer Bertrand Piccard hopes to stimulate climate action by demonstrating disruptive solutions in this 2028 aircraft design.
Solvent-free surface functionalization technology uses low amounts of chemistry and little energy to prime composites and dissimilar materials prior to bonding in addition to other functionalities.
Developer of in-space transportation vehicles using CFRP tanks raises capital investment from Raytheon Technologies (RTX) Ventures.
Interview with COO discusses carbon fiber composites in tanks, vehicles and their role in space commerce as part of rapidly growing New Space economy.
Energized only by sunlight taken in by the solar panels arrayed on its horizontal surfaces, the electric-prop-driven, all-composite-airframed Solar Impulse (Si2) aircraft had completed nearly one-half of its much publicized ‘round- the-world trip as CW’s May issue went to press.
Not yet through their ‘round the world flight, this superlight solar plane’s airframe-proven materials are already destined for higher callings.
CW was at the scene when the composites-intensive Si2 landed in Phoenix, AZ.
The Solar Impulse 2 solar-powered plane aims to fly around the world in 2015. Titan Aerospace's Solara 50 solar-powered UAV will provide Internet access for Google. Both rely heavily on composites.
Pilots André Borschberg and Bertrand Piccard successfully complete the first leg of what is intended to be a five month global aerial circumnavigation.
