Abstract

This study investigates the high melting temperature polymers of polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and polyaryletherketone (PAEK) incorporated with carbon and ceramic nanoparticles (graphene, multiwall carbon nanotubes, carbon black, TiO2, SiO2) for the reduction of aircraft interior noise. These materials are applicable to form porous nanocomposite structures, which are new in research with lighter weights and are suitable, especially in aircraft and other space applications. The materials' properties were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), confocal laser microscope, differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), FIJI software, and noise absorption and transmission loss units. The testing parameters and variables of these porous materials could supply reliable experimental validation via special characteristics, surface morphology, and geometric microstructural analysis. The test results indicated that these porous nanocomposite materials have extraordinary physical and chemical properties and would have great potential to use in aircraft interior noise reductions and similar other sound absorption purposes.
