ABC-Laminate – Aluminium Bio Composite Laminate – step 1

The project ran between November 2021 and May 2022.

The ABC-Laminates project aimed to challenge a typical Fiber Metal Laminate (FML) used for the fuselage on the Airbus A380. The project evaluated self-reinforced PLA and PET as well as PET/fibre glass composite, in combination with two different Al alloys.

Main activities were to evaluate formability, mechanical properties as well as the environmental impact of the concept.

Participants

Gränges Finspång AB, Comfil Aps (Dk) and RISE AB.

Budget

The project’s total budget was 1 MSEK.
