An Analysis of the Possibility of Using Foamed Polypropylene for the Construction of Aircraft Structural Elements

• Authors: Michał Miros , Artur Miros

Abstracts

EN

This article contains two selected properties of foamed polypropylene. Durability and water absorption were tested. The tested possibilities are available in terms of the use of the tested material in air structures. Resistance to them is possible due to the fact that they are structural elements of air elements, while the lowest water absorption is required due to the requirements that can be operated by airborne vehicles. The property consisting in the ability to absorb water by the tested material excludes it from the test results and its use in the formation of air substances. The test results do not provide grounds to reject the tested material as a potential use of a structural material in air structures.
