Lamart Receives
Approval from Boeing - Posted 03/12/07
Lamart
Corporation announces that Lamaguard 401A has joined Lamaguard 400A on BMS8-377,
the specification that Boeing uses for covering films for thermal and acoustic
insulation on their Legacy aircraft. Both covering films meet the FAA’s FAR
25.856(a) flammability requirements.
Lamart is
now the only supplier that has covering film materials qualified on
Boeing’s Legacy aircraft and their new 787 Dreamliner.
Lamart Receives Approval from Boeing
Lamart Corporation announces that Boeing has
qualified Lamaguard 400A, a PVF type covering film, for use on aircraft thermal
and acoustic insulation systems. This material, which meets the FAA’s FAR
25.856(a) flammability requirements, will be used on Boeing’s Legacy aircraft.
The qualification of Lamaguard 400A follows
the approval of Lamart’s very light weight Lamaguard 30 covering film, which is
a PEKK based covering film that will be used on insulation blankets in Boeing’s
787 Dreamliner. Boeing chose Lamart’s covering film because it offered
considerable weight savings per aircraft, compared with the PVF covering film
that was also under consideration.
Lamart Corporation
Receives Boeing Approval Clifton, NJ -
Lamart Corporation has received approval from Boeing to supply covering films
for aircraft thermal and acoustic insulation systems for the new Boeing 787.
Boeing chose Lamart's APK™ line of covering films because it offers a 100#
weight reduction per aircraft, which translates into lower operating costs for
the airline operators. According to David
A. Shields, Lamart's New Business Development Director, "Boeing chose our
covering films based on the low weight advantage we were able to deliver.
When a given aircraft is lighter it uses less fuel. The need for such
films stems form the regulatory change mandated by the FAA to ensure that
all aircraft insulation blankets meet the requirements of a radiant panel test
used to measure the resistance of the films to propagate a flame after ignition
from a small fire source. "PVF" covering
films", Shields added, "that have since been commercially developed to meet the
FAA Standard, have thus far proven to be heavier than the films used before the
standard was implemented. However, Lamart's APK™ films, totally satisfies
the FAA's requirements, and does so at a considerable weight savings."

Upgrades
Fuel Cell Capabilities
Clifton, NJ—Lamart Corporation, a company that specializes
in the custom design of coating and laminating projects in a range of industries,
has announced it has embarked on a new business plan to make laminated and coated
structures that are useful in the manufacture of fuel cell components.
“Our ultimate objective,” said David A. Shields,
Lamart’s New Business Development Director, “is to assist companies in the engineering of
gaskets and multi-layer components that will help to define the best fuel cell
processes and products to employ. Our recent experience working with N.A.S.A. in the design
of a composite envelope structure has convinced us of both the need and
practicality of this approach. We’ve tooled up to satisfying the most exacting fuel cell
requirements by dedicating a 13” wide lab coater and a 25-foot three-zone dryer for pilot lab
applications. We intend to use this equipment to coat catalyst slurries on a carbon substrate
in order to make gas diffusion layers (GDL), or to laminate GDLs to membrane electrode
assemblies, or MEAs. We’re encouraged by the response we received to date from
specialists in the fuel cell industry.”
