Thermoplastic Composite Honeycomb Panels

Home » Materials » Polypropylene Honeycomb Panels

Thermoplastic composite polypropylene honeycomb panels are composite materials different from traditional adhesive honeycomb sandwich panels. They are made of CFRT (continuous fiber reinforced thermoplastic) composite sheets and polypropylene (PP) honeycomb cores by thermal composite processing. Because the thermoplastic resin permeates each other during the heating process, the CFRT sheet and the honeycomb core material are more closely composited and difficult to separate after cooling. This kind of bonding strength cannot be achieved by adhesive alone.

Main Characteristics

Lightweight

The honeycomb structure significantly reduces weight.

High Strength to Weight Ratio

The panels can withstand large loads and remain structurally stable.

Impact Resistance

Due to the energy-absorbing properties of the honeycomb core, the panels can release the impact of external forces.

Chemical Resistance

Thermoplastic materials are absolutely waterproof and resistant to a wide range of chemicals, which contributes to the durability of the panels in harsh environments.

100% Recyclable

Since the skin and core materials are thermoplastic, the panels are recyclable.

01 Structural Diagram

Thermoplastic composite polypropylene honeycomb panels offer simple structure and superior performance.

Continuous fibers are combined with thermoplastic resins to create lightweight and durable UD prepreg tapes, which are then thermal laminated together at set angles to form CFRT sheets with improved performance. CFRT laminates are known for their excellent mechanical properties, including high strength-to-weight ratio, good impact resistance, and resistance to environmental factors such as moisture and chemicals.
