New Henkel online seminar

Webinar “Material Selection for Propulsion Applications“

Propulsion applications present the most demanding of aircraft environments. Engines, nacelles and auxiliary power units experience temperature extremes, require long term durability and undergo mechanical and acoustic fatigue. Henkel will be holding a webinar on “Material Selection for Propulsion Applications” on October 1st, 2014 at 08:00 PM (CET). Mr. Steve Cunningham, Mr. Ray Cornwell and Mr. David Leach will give an overview about Henkel’s solutions for these demanding propulsion applications.
Henkel has developed a family of products including:
•	Surface treatments for metals and impregnated peel plies for composite surface preparation
•	Film adhesives capable of reticulation in honeycomb sandwich applications
•	Paste adhesives and potting compounds for high temperature service
•	Core splice materials for use with metal and organic honeycombs
•	Surfacing and lightning strike films for composite structures
•	Abradable seals to improve engine efficiency
•	Benzoxazine prepregs and infusion resins for structural components

The purpose of the live webinars is to shed light on important issues surrounding the aerospace industry. They allow participants to gain further knowledge and interactively deepen their personal expertise on innovative solutions in a very convenient way. The free webinars allow to communicate directly with Henkel experts. 

Primary topics:
•	Service requirements for propulsion applications
•	Material solutions for assembly, surface preparation and core splice
•	Surfacing and lightning strike protection
•	Benefits of abradable seals
•	Composite materials for propulsion structures
