New Henkel online seminar

Webinar “Material for Aircraft Interior Applications“

Aircraft interior applications require a unique combination of properties and processing. Materials must have very low flammability, not only in terms of the ability to withstand flame impingement, but also the smoke and toxic gas released during exposure to fire. Materials must be processed easily due to the high volume of interior parts manufactured. Flammability requirements are becoming more stringent and composite materials are being used in more structural applications, both of which present increased demands on the materials being used. Henkel will be holding a webinar on “Material for Aircraft Interior Applications” on November 5th, 2014 at 08:00 PM (CET). Annika Blom and David Leach will introduce participants to composites and assembly solutions for aircraft interior applications.
The purpose of the live webinars is to shed light on important issues surrounding the aerospace industry. They allow participants to gain further knowledge and interactively deepen their personal expertise on innovative solutions in a very convenient way. The free webinars allow to communicate directly with Henkel experts. 

Primary topics:
•	Aircraft interior applications
•	Performance requirements
•	Material solutions for construction and assembly of interior components

Webinar Online Time:
UTC: 07:00 PM - 08:00 PM
PDT: 11:00 AM - 12:00 AM
EDT: 02:00 PM - 03:00 PM
