From March 3rd to 5th, 2020, Evonik will appear at the JEC World in Paris, at the JEC World booth J40 in Hall 5, to demonstrate to the aerospace composites industry how to achieve innovation in component design and higher production efficiency through automated production.
.
When evaluating the suitability of a material and whether a material solution can meet the highest performance requirements, leaders in various industries are most concerned with reducing processing time and saving production costs
.
At this exhibition, visitors who wish to mass-produce composite parts at the lowest cost will have the opportunity to learn about a joint project by Evonik Industries, Airbus Composite Technology Center Co.
, Ltd.
and the German Aerospace Center.
Research on the use of rigid foams in automated production
.
The results of this study demonstrate the use of Evonik's RHACELL® rigid foam, a closed-cell polymer, in the automated production of complex components such as aircraft flaps, spoilers, landing gear doors and other mass-produced components.
Various advantages of methacrylimide (PMI) foam
.
This exhibition will showcase the helicopter main rotor blades produced by Van Horn Aviation for the 206B JetRanger helicopter.
This blade part uses composite materials and is an application example of the current innovative component design
.
The paddles are made of ROHACELL® 71HERO foam core and Toray carbon fiber, the composite is co-cured in an autoclave
.
Viewers can see the internal structure of the paddle through its profile
.
future capacity growth
future capacity growthAbout 50 years ago, ROHACELL® foam was introduced as the first commercially available PMI foam for use as a core material in sandwich structures
.
Originally, we produced ROHACELL® at our Darmstadt production site in Germany.
In 2008, we built a new production plant in Mobile, USA, and in 2015, we built a new plant in Shanghai, China, which is still in operation today
.
This year, Evonik has significantly expanded its ROHACELL® production plant in Mobile and is investing in a new, modern production plant in Darmstadt, which is scheduled to start production by the end of 2021
.
Dr.
Kai-Martin Krüger, head of Evonik's high-performance foam product line, said that we are continuously expanding the production capacity of ROHACELL® because supporting market development and providing customers with a reliable local supply are our top priorities

more than light
more than lightComposite sandwich components combine a lightweight core with an ultra-thin carbon fiber composite overlay to provide the best mechanical properties at the lightest weight
.
In addition, ROHACELL® has excellent strength and stiffness, can withstand high temperatures up to 220°C (428°F), and has excellent compressive creep strength at high temperatures
.
Today, this rigid foam is widely used in the aircraft, automotive, marine, sporting goods, electronics and medical technology industries, and customers have access to global application technical support from a team of engineers, composite researchers and experts in the field of sandwich element design
