Careful integration of materials, processes, and designs for aircraft interiors is critical to successfully designing and producing airplanes, and of supporting airline customers. This paper discusses new thermoplastic materials being investigated, the processes by which these materials are formed into interior components, such as stowage boxes and lavatory modules, and how the new thermoplastic materials can be used advantageously to meet the basic design requirements of interior components as well as meet the systems requirements defined by the total airplane operating environment.
