There Is No Limit To Science And Technology: Aircraft Wings Can Also Be Made Of Chemical Fibers.

Many people know that chemical fiber can make clothes, curtains, car accessories and so on.

In fact, the scope of application of chemical fiber is far more than that.

Although the application of chemical fiber to clothing has occupied a leading position, with the adjustment of industrial structure and technological progress, this situation has changed.

Reporters learned from experts' discussions that at present, China's chemical fiber used in aerospace, military, medical, automotive and high-speed trains has accounted for 30% of the total.

"High strength medium modulus carbon fiber is a high level and balanced composite material, which is used to meet the weight reduction requirements of aircraft applications, and has been applied in the main structure of civil aircraft."

According to Shen Zhen, a researcher at the Institute of Aircraft Strength Research of the China aviation industry, with the application of A380, Boeing 787 and A350 in the structure of the wings and fuselage, a large number of high strength medium modulus carbon fiber composite materials have been applied. This indicates that the technology of low cost composite materials has broken through, and the consumption of composite materials for civil aircraft structures will increase significantly.

The highest modulus of high modulus carbon fiber has also been widely used.
