飞机座椅采用各种塑料模制注塑件，例如装饰隔间，装饰条，食物托盘和扶手。 聚碳酸酯PC，丙烯腈-丁二烯-苯乙烯（ABS）和装饰性乙烯基通常用于这些位置。
大多数座椅结构是由铝制成的。 然而，一些制造商已经引入了碳复合结构以减轻重量。
C.2.4 Plastic Molding
Aircraft seats employ a wide variety of plastic moldings for items such as decorative closeouts, trim strips, food trays, and arm rests. Polycarbonate, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS), and decorative vinyls are commonly used for these purposes.
C.2.5 Structure
Most seat structures are made of aluminum; however, some manufacturers have introduced carbon composite structures to reduce weight.
