The aim of SARISTU is to take forward to higher TRL level from previous research various technologies and methods that realise measurable improvements in aircraft damage tolerance and weight reductions. AS10 claims to evaluate three technologies: multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), metallic strips and metallic coatings for structural capability integration in order to demonstrate the manufacturability of CFRP parts with improved electrical conductivity. AS10 worked alongside AS09. The improved electrical conductivity should deliver composite laminates showing damage tolerance as it is pursued within AS09. This chapter reviews the technologies studied and their contribution to the improvement of electrical isotropy of CFRP laminates.
