About this file

This Statement of Work details NASA's procurement of Zylon Poly-Benzobisoxazole (PBO) Yarn for the Hypersonic Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerator (HIAD) technology. NASA requires two specific types of Zylon yarn: 105 kg of 278 dtex AS-13 and 20 kg of 1110 dtex AS-13, to be used in an inflatable aeroshell for decelerating and controlling flight during atmospheric reentry.

The contractor must deliver the yarn within ten weeks after contract award and provide Material Certification Data Sheets for each lot, including details on material description, quantity, manufacture date, and tested tenacity. NASA allows partial delivery of in-stock quantities with subsequent delivery of newly manufactured yarn. The yarn is specifically for NASA missions and is classified as civil aircraft material, not intended for public use.

STATEMENT OF WORK - Zylon Poly-Benzobisoxazole (PBO) Yarn

1. Objective/Requirements NASA is procuring Zylon Poly-Benzobisoxazole (PBO) Yarn with linear density of 278 dtex AS-13 and 1110 dtex AS-13. The Contractor shall deliver the yarn, quantities, and documentation as defined below. The Zylon Poly-Benzobisoxazole Yarn is a key material that enables the Hypersonic Inflatable Aerodynamic Decelerator (HIAD) technology to meet atmospheric reentry flight requirements for current and several NASA missions. The Zylon will be used for an inflatable aeroshell which is used to decelerate and control flight during descent through air to land on the ground or in the water. It is not used for public use and is classified civil aircraft.

2. Characteristics, Scope, and Specs

The contractor shall provide the following:

• Provide Zylon Poly-Benzobisoxazole (PBO) Yarn with linear density and quantity as follows:

1) Zylon yarn 278 dtex AS-13, 105 kg

2) Zylon yarn 1110 dtex AS-13, 20 kg

• Material Certification Data Sheets shall be provided with each lot that includes description of material, quantity, manufacture date, and tested tenacity.

• Partial delivery of in-stock quantities of yarn with subsequent delivery of newly manufactured yarn is acceptable.

3. Place of Performance
