Advanced Pultrusion Techniques as Alternatives in Aerospace Composite Manufacturing: A Review

Abstract

Pultruded FRP composites’ production and use in aerospace applications have grown over time as a result of its superior strength-to-weight ratio, enhanced durability, reduced labour costs, high productivity, corrosion resistance, and nonconductive qualities. In this regard, the pultrusion process has undergone several improvements enhancing its adaptability in producing composite products used in a variety of sectors. This review examines prospective uses for advanced pultruded FRP composites in the aviation and aerospace sectors as well as technological improvements in pultrusion.
