Rigidity, mechanical behavior and weight are critical for any material used in aerospace and aircraft applications.

Composites are used in:

• primary structural parts (flaps and aerosoils, propellers and air brakes)
• small plane fuselages
• helicopter shells and rotor blades
• aircraft secondary structural parts (floors, doors, seats, air conditioners, secondary tanks)
• airplane motor parts

Composites are also used in a variety of civil and military security applications:

• mine sweeper hulls
• helmets
• radomes
• rocket nozzles
