Advantages of composite material
 Reduces costs by an estimated 20 percent
 Provides higher static strength, damage tolerance, corrosion resistance
 Allows for higher pressurization in the passenger cabin, increasing the ability to regulate temperature,
humidity and ventilation
 Provides an estimated fuel cost savings of more than 20,000 gallons a year

New improved Chair back
Nylon with 2% HNT™
Stronger
 Better performance under fatigue
 No whitening
 Longer lifetime
 Increased flexibility and toughness
Lighter
 15% lighter - due to filler reduction from 17% glass fiber to 2% HNT
Less expensive
 Improved appearance, resulting in less defects and lower scrap
 Easier processing - reduced cycle time, removes the need for
expensive, specialized machinery
Higher quality - superior surface finish
