New Low Cost Resins Systems

Develop and test unsaturated resins that incorporate unique low cost chemistries that provide for greatly improved fire performance without the use of halogens or bromines. These resin systems are to be compatible with traditional open mold manufacturingprocesses and closed processes including vacuum infusion. These systems would be low cost alternatives to phenolics and epoxies with reduced processing costs. The commercial applications would range from public transportation and industrial applicationsto aviation applications for commercial aircraft interior components.
