Hexcel HexPly: Leveraging MAGRAM FD Series for Effective Microwave Absorption

Introduction to MAGRAM FD Series

The Hexcel HexPly MAGRAM FD Series is a cutting-edge solution that combines high-performance magnetic materials with the desirable physical properties of Viton (Fluoroelastomer). This series of microwave absorbers is engineered to provide exceptional energy absorption properties while offering excellent resistance to aggressive fuels and chemicals. With a temperature range from -29°C to 200°C and a high-temperature resistance of up to 400°F/200°C, the MAGRAM FD Series is ideal for applications where exposure to harsh environments, high temperatures, or corrosive substances is a concern.

Key Features and Benefits

The MAGRAM FD Series stands out due to its flexible Viton (Fluoroelastomer) binder, which enables effective mode suppression in enclosed cavities, signal isolation, and attenuation of surface currents. This microwave absorber is mechanically stable and highly resistant to chemicals, moisture, fluids, and most fuels. Viton (Fluoroelastomer) exhibits excellent chemical stability and performs exceptionally well across a wide temperature range. Additionally, the MAGRAM FD Series can attenuate frequencies from 500MHz to 40GHz, making it a versatile and high-performance solution for a variety of applications.

Applications and Versatility

The MAGRAM FD Series is particularly valuable in situations where a broader range of chemical resistance and superior high-temperature properties are required. Its resistance to swelling when exposed to gasoline, as well as its ability to withstand UV light and ozone exposure without degradation, make it a reliable choice for demanding environments. Whether used for mode suppression, signal isolation, or surface current attenuation, the MAGRAM FD Series delivers consistent performance and durability in challenging conditions.

Enhancing Laminates with Hexcel HexPly SuperFIT Prepregs

Introduction to HexPly SuperFIT

HexPly SuperFIT is a range of prepregs consisting of glass and carbon fiber reinforcements partially impregnated with epoxy resin. The unique feature of these prepregs is their one tacky face and one dry face, making them easier to handle during processing. When heated and vacuumed, the resin in HexPly SuperFIT activates, allowing it to flow and fully infuse the reinforcement, resulting in strong and durable laminates.
