Abstract

A rear frame of an air intake of a nacelle of an aircraft, is made in part of composite material that is based on a fiber-reinforced geopolymer resin and includes at least one part ( 56 ) that encompasses an orifice that is provided for the passage of a defrosting system that is made of composite material that is based on a fiber-reinforced geopolymer resin and at least one other metal part ( 58 ).

Claims (5)

1 . Rear frame of an air intake of a nacelle of an aircraft, characterized in that it is made in part of composite material that is based on a fiber-reinforced geopolymer resin and comprises at least one part ( 56 ) that encompasses an orifice that is provided for the passage of a defrosting system that is made of a composite material that is based on a fiber-reinforced geopolymer resin and at least one other metal part ( 58 ).

2 . Rear frame of an air intake of a nacelle of an aircraft according to claim 1 , wherein it comprises two concentric parts, a first annular part ( 56 ) made of composite material that is based on a fiber-reinforced geopolymer resin that is in contact with the external skin ( 34 ) of the nacelle and a second annular metal part ( 58 ) that is in contact with the internal skin ( 32 ) of the nacelle.

3 . Rear frame of an air intake of a nacelle of an aircraft according to claim 1 , wherein it is made from a composite material that is based on fibers that are woven into a sialate-type geopolymer resin (xSiO 2 , AlO 2 ), in which x is between or equal to 1.75 and 50.

4 . Rear frame of an air intake of a nacelle of an aircraft according to claim 3 , wherein the finish has been at least partially removed from the fibers prior to the impregnation with the geopolymer resin.

5 . Rear frame of an air intake of a nacelle of an aircraft according to claim 2 , wherein it is made from a composite material that is based on fibers that are woven into a sialate-type geopolymer resin (xSiO 2 , AlO 2 ), in which x is between or equal to 1.75 and 50.
