Abstract

We propose to develop a novel high temperature PMR-RTM polyimide resin with a low melt viscosity (<5 Poise at 288 ?C) that will address the NASA-GRC need for advanced materials for lightweight propulsion systems for reduced emissions. Triton?s proposed innovative research will focus on developing a novel PMR-RTM polyimide resin that has a very low melt viscosity (1-5 Poise), excellent thermal stability and mechanical performance comparable to PMR-15. This resin will allow out of autoclave manufacture of complex shaped parts, and the size of the part will not be limited by the size of the autoclave
