Aircraft industry

Year by year using of structural glass fabrics and silica fabrics increases due to growing demand of the aircraft industry. The aircraft industry uses glass fabrics for production of fibre-glass items.

 

Modern aviation, both military and civil, would be much less effective without composite materials.

 

Indeed, requirements for materials (to be light and at the same time strong enough) of this particular industry appeared to be the main drive for their design and improvement. Nowadays, it is a common standard to make wings of aircraft, their tail group, propellers, engine turbine blades of modern composite materials. The same relates to the most part of their internal structure and fuselage. Today some small aircraft have their bodies completely made of composite materials. In large commercial planes, wings, tail group and body panels are usually made of such materials.
