Introduction
Gurit is proud to present its next generation of aircraft interior prepregs based on PB1000. PB1000 is a modified
benzoxazine resin that is without free formaldehyde and phenol and satisfies the most recent environmental
standards like AIRBUS AP2091. It features a non-volatile, rapid cure, generating a perfect void and porous free
surface, through which time and cost consuming rework, is eliminated.
Gurit’s novel PB1000 fully complies with demanding international JAR/FAR fire protection regulations regarding
flammability, smoke, toxicity (FST) and heat release. Due to its excellent mechanical performance, PB1000 is
perfectly suited to fulfil present and forthcoming stress criteria for interior design.
Meeting increasing demands on cost efficiency in aircraft interior manufacturing, PB1000 is also designed for
commonly used fast hot-in / hot-out curing processes. This unique material performance combined with a
competitive cost price level makes PB1000 an advantageous choice for aircraft interior applications and is clearly
capable to replace phenolic systems.
