PP Honeycomb Panel

DecoTech Polypropylene honeycomb cores are usually used in the fabrication of lightweight structures. The core materials is typically “sandwiched” between skins of aluminum, steel, wood, paper , FRP or other high strength composite materials. A bonding adhesive is used to attach the skin to the honeycomb core. DecoTech polypropylene honeycomb core is supplied with or without a non-woven polyester veil for better bonding. It is also supplied with or without a film barrier under the polyester veil to limit the amount of resin consumption.


Features:

* High Strength to Weight Ratio 

* Corrosion, Fungi, Rot, Chemical, Moisture resistant

* Sound and Vibration dampening

* Energy Absorbing

* Thermoformable

* Temperature use to 180 degrees F

* Recyclable

DecoTech polypropylene honeycomb core materials offer the following properties:

Mechanical strength & rigidity

DecoTech cells are solid with each other along their whole length, affording the unit excellent compressive strength and good shear strength.

DecoTech maintains the required rigidity with a substantial reduction in weight.

The non-woven polyester veil, thermo-fused to the cells, offers superior bond and peel strengths.

Water, corrosion, chemical resistance

DecoTech has excellent characteristics of resistance to water, to corrosion, to bacteria, and to most chemical products.

Thousands of boats are built every year using DecoTech as a strong and rot-proof core.

Superior insulation

DecoTech is a great heat insulator.

DecoTech also provides superior sound deadening properties.


Easy to use

The unique properties of polypropylene honeycomb allows superior conformability.

DecoTech products are ideal for a very wide variety of facings, whether conventional like wood, laminates, metals...or more innovative like fiber glass reinforced thermoplastics or technical textile

Implementation is easy: laminating, gluing, welding or simple cutting.

Impact and fatigue resistant

DecoTech polypropylene"s toughness provides excellent impact properties.

Polypropylene"s resiliency, combined with DecoTech "s outstanding bonding properties, results in a higher fatigue resistance.

Environmentally Friendly

Plastic Honeycomb materials contribute in the fight against noise through their structure. They are rot-proof and corrosion-proof. DecoTech honeycomb materials are currently used to transform flows which are initially turbulent into laminar flows. And DecoTech "s plastic materials are recyclable.
