Thermoplastic honeycomb panels are sandwich-structured panels whose skins are composed of CFRT (continuous fiberglass thermoplastic) sheets and the middle layer structure is a polypropylene honeycomb core. Unlike the adhesive process, thermoplastic honeycomb panels are processed by thermal fusion lamination (by heating the materials to fuse them). Since no glue is used during processing, the bonding between the layers is more precise and the sandwich structure is more stable and reliable.
Structure Schematic
- Decorative Film: The decorative film not only has an aesthetic effect, but also plays a waterproof role. You can choose PET, PVC, PP and other materials as the decorative film, and you can also print patterns on the film.
- Thermoplastic UD Tapes: UD tapes are interwoven at different angles (usually 0 °/90 °), and the number of layers of UD Tapes varies from 2 to 10 layers according to the strength requirements. The more layers of the unidirectional tape, the higher the strength of the thermoplastic honeycomb panel.
- Polypropylene Honeycomb: The honeycomb core provides a stable structural support for the composite panel. The diameter of the PP honeycomb core cells ranges from 8mm to 12mm, and the most commonly used ones are 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm, which can be made according to customer requirements.
