Thornel T-300 (Amoco) carbon fibre (3,000-filament tow) in an F652 (Hexcel) bismaleimide matrix, supplied as 8-harness satin weave. Carbon/BMI extends carbon/epoxy to sustained service around 350-450 °F, well beyond epoxy's limit, while processing in broadly similar tooling. It is used for engine nacelles and nozzles, structure near exhaust, and supersonic-aircraft skins subject to aerodynamic heating.
