CFRT XPS Sandwich Panels

CFRT XPS Sandwich Panels
CFRT XPS Sandwich Panels

This panel structure combines the high strength of CFRT materials with the excellent thermal insulation properties of XPS foam.

Basic Structure

  • CFRT Sheet: It is a multi-layer continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic (UP Tapes) that has higher strength and rigidity than thermosetting GRP materials. More
  • XPS Foam: It is a lightweight closed-cell rigid foam with excellent thermal insulation properties, which can effectively insulate, reduce energy consumption, and provide a comfortable indoor environment. More

Basic Specifications

  • Total Thickness: 10~120mm, of customized.
  • Length: ≤12m.
  • Width: ≤3.2m.
  • Core Materials: XPS foam core.
  • Skin Materials: CFRT sheet(0.4~10mm).
  • Layers of UD Tape: 2~9 layers, the number of layers can be customized.
  • Surface Film: PET/PVC/PP film.
  • Surface Color: Natural/black, other colors can be customized.
  • Performance Rreatment: anti-ultraviolet, flame retardant, antistatic.
  • Process Options: Embedded reinforcement materials; CNC machining services.

Advantages

  • Lightweight: CFRT sheets are thinner than typical GRP sheets, and when combined with lightweight XPS foam core, the resulting sandwich panels are much lighter than composite panels with similar strength properties.
  • High Strength: CFRT provides high tensile strength and stiffness, allowing panels to withstand considerable loads while remaining lightweight.
  • Thermal Insulation: XPS foam core has excellent thermal insulation properties, making CFRT XPS sandwich panels suitable for applications requiring temperature control, such as the construction and transportation industries.
  • Durability: CFRT composites are known for their durability and resistance to corrosion, chemicals, and UV radiation. This durability, combined with the protective XPS core material, extends the life of CFRT XPS sandwich panels.

Applications

  • Buildings: Due to the excellent thermal insulation properties of XPS material, it is often used as building insulation panels to maintain the temperature inside the building.
  • Flooring: Due to its strength and durability, it is also used as a flooring material, especially where lightweight yet strong is required.
  • Transportation: It is commonly used in interior panels of RVs, box trucks, buses, subways, trucks, and aircraft to provide strength and lightweight, helping to save fuel.
  • Shipbuilding: In the shipbuilding industry, CFRT XPS sandwich panels are often used to manufacture buildings above the deck, providing good structural strength and durability.
  • Packaging and Containers: It can be used to make shipping containers to ensure the safety of goods during transportation.
