Screening programme to select a resin for Gravity Probe-B composites.
Author(s) : WILL E. T.
Type of article: Article
Summary
The Gravity Probe-B programme undertook a screening programme to select a possible replacement resin for the E-787 resin currently used in composite neck tubes and support struts. The goal was to find a resin with good cryogenic and structural properties, low helium permeation and an easily repeatable fabrication process. Composite tubes made from each of 3 resins and gamma-alumina fiber were evaluated for cryogenic and structural performance and for processability.
