The present conference on advanced materials discusses the curing of thick laminates with internal heat sources, the use of wide-angle X-ray scattering to determine solvent-induced polymer matrix crystallization, long-term degradation of fibrous silica composites, cyanate ester matrix resins, the 977 family of toughened epoxies, an all-thermoplastic matrix composite fighter forward fuselage, a high-temperature BMI matrix system for composite structures, and the design and analysis of elevated-temperature aerospace structures. Also discussed are on-orbit fabrication of Space Station structures, a novel infiltration process for metal-matrix composites, Boeing 360 helicopter honeycomb sandwich primary structures, recent advancements in honeycomb structures, thermoplastic-toughened epoxy resins, the LARC-CPI semicrystalline polyimide, torsion in filament-wound tubes, monolithic graphite tooling, stitching for laminate damage-tolerance improvement, and advanced composite structures for cryogenic applications.
