In Russia, the creation of new materials for use in glazing aeronautical engineering. The developed materials possess high strength and thermal stability, the press service of the state corporation “Rostec”.
Innovative materials based on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) developed as part of the federal target program. They possess enhanced resistance to surface cracking and thermal stability. According to the developers, properties of new materials make it possible to use them at supersonic combat aircraft, as well as in civil aircraft. Besides, new materials can be used in the space industry, shipbuilding, railway transport.
New glass on its technical and operational characteristics correspond to the best world standards. (…) Some brand new glass industry have already been certified and received approval for use in the aviation industry, they are ready for commercial production
– said the executive director of the Oleg Yevtushenko Rostec.
As the general director of JSC “polymer Research Institute” Vadim Lukonyn, series production will be deployed on the basis of the Research Institute, It has organized high-tech low-tonnage production of necessary materials.
(…) Glass ready for commercial production and can be used in the glazing of the latest supersonic fighter Su-35, Su-30, Su-34, MiG-29 and other advanced aircraft, and illuminators for passenger aircraft type Sukhoi Superjet and MS-21
– he explained.
Development of new materials led Holding “RT-Himkompozit”, included in “Rostec”.
