Hello, we are currently working on a work placement designing a tool to be used to solve a problem with regard to riveting an aircraft part, what would be the most viable option for a protective coating. The tool is made from aluminium and the purpose of the coating is to protect the carbon fibre that the tool will come into contact with. We believe this coating will have to be some form of composite material, perhaps kevlar, as it must have a high impact resistance, toughness and fatigue resistance. If anyone has any input that they would care to share this would be valuable research material and much appreciated. cheers
