Abstract

Presents the results of studies of the fire safety parameters of high-temperature carbon fiber reinforced plastics made on the basis of various heat-resistant polymer binders, conducted in order to determine the possibility of their potential application in the designs of aircraft products, from the point of view of compliance with the requirements of regulatory documents in the field of aviation fire safety. It is shown that the considered carbon plastics have high values of fire safety characteristics and can be used in aircraft products.
