Note that Cytec was acquired by Solvay and the location being referenced is Solvay Composite Materials in Heanor, U.K. — a site with a long history of innovation, including the double diaphragm forming process recently tested via the RAPM program. “Our last such activity was developing an OOA thermoplastic process that uses a new, innovative press that combines PEEK (polyetheretherketone) and PEI (polyetherimide) into a new composite material.” This new material, equipment and process has now been demonstrated in a carbon fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) aircraft stringer, made using AFP in-situ consolidation and welding via the NHYTE project.
