Title: LARC-TPI and new thermoplastic polyimides

Journal Article · · SAMPE J.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6452152

The LARC-TPI linear thermoplastic polyimide has been developed by NASA for high temperature adhesive applications in aerospace structures in the forms of varnish, films, powders, and prepregs. LARC-TPI improves adhesive processability and lowers glass transition temperature, while retaining mechanical, thermal and electrical properties inherent in the polyimides. It may be used as a structural adhesive for metals, composites, ceramics, and films. 8 references.
