Abstract: A seal comprising a high temperature silicone adhesive sealant layer; a first non-ceramic layer mounted to the silicone adhesive sealant layer; a first expanded metal layer mounted to the first non-ceramic layer; a first silicone cloth layer mounted to the first expanded metal layer; a metal reinforcement layer mounted to the first silicone cloth layer to provide structural integrity without the use of ceramic materials; a second expanded metal layer mounted to the metal reinforcement layer; a second non-ceramic layer mounted to the second expanded metal layer; a turbine mesh layer mounted to the second non-ceramic layer; a second silicone cloth layer mounted to the turbine mesh layer; a sealing castable applied over the second silicone cloth layer to provide a covering; and, a high temperature bonding adhesive disposed between each layer following the first non-ceramic layer to bind the layers together.
Abstract: Thermosetting polymers and the electrical laminates made therefrom are disclosed. The polymer comprises the cross-linked product of: a) one or more ethylenically unsaturated aromatic monomers, optionally containing a halogenated monomer to impart fire retardation, and b) a vinyl-terminated polybutadiene or butadiene-styrene copolymer containing either a urethane or an ester group. It has been discovered that an unexpected combination of thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties are obtained from the composition recited herein. The composition is ideally suited as a matrix polymer for electrical substrate applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the fabrication of thick, three-dimensional preforms comprising fibers disposed as chords of a circle, and to composites comprising such structures embedded in a matrix material such as a thermoset resin, ceramic, metal or carbon. The fibrous preform structure composed of fiber disposed as chords of a circle produces a range of composite structures from isotropic orientation at the lamina level to balanced, symmetric lamina to best satisfy end use requirements. Carbon-carbon fiber composite articles produced from these chordal preforms are obtained by carbonizing such structures followed by infiltration with pyrolytic carbon using CAD processes exhibit attractive properties for high energy friction applications.
