Applications

With weight reduction and increased performance being at the core of many material goals within the aerospace and defense industries, Mitsubishi Chemicals is well positioned to provide high strength-to-weight materials that can increase fuel efficiency and performance over traditional materials. Our unique range of materials are used within interior parts as well as systems and structural parts for all types of aircrafts as well as missiles, rockets and satellites.

To ensure fuel efficiency, aircraft interior applications demand light weighting and efficiency for material usage. With a wide range of composites, carbon fiber and engineering plastics, Mitsubishi Chemicals materials are cost efficient solutions when replacing Aluminum, Titanium, and other metals. Additionally, our proprietary Nichigo G-Tape provides residue-free removal and high tensile strength for a range of applications such as protection during maintenance and storage, seaming insulation blankets, all the way to bonding to floor materials.

Mitsubishi Chemical components can be found within several structural applications in aerospace and defense varying nacelles and engines to wing assemblies and landing gear. Each of these materials must possess cryogenic compatibility and have low out-gassing characteristics to ensure stability and performance in the extreme conditions presented by speed and altitude.

System parts are vital to the safety of all aircrafts and there are many stringent requirements for all materials used within the aerospace and defense industries. Mitsubishi Chemical has a wide range of advanced materials that offer significant weight reduction while meeting all regulatory requirements for chemical resistance, flammability, smoke and toxicity.
