High temperature foam core material for composites
60 - 80 kg/m3 | AIREX® C71
Airex AG
A unique closed cell, cross-linked polymer foam specially formulated to maintain its stability at higher processing temperatures. With an improved formula that enhances its strength and ductility, it is non-friable, contains no CFC's, and has negligible water absorption. Compatible with most resins, it is ideally suited as a core material for a wide variety of light-weight sandwich structures subjected to both static and dynamic loads, and exposed to elevated temperatures during manufacturing.
Characteristics
* Maintains stiffness and strength at elevated temperatures
* Dimensionally stable
* Low resin absorption (fine cell size)
* Highest strength in class
* Good impact performance (best elongation in its class)
* High fatigue resistance
* Good fire performance (self-extinguishing)
* Sound and thermal insulation
* Good styrene resistance
