Plastic honeycomb Nomex®

for the aerospace industryfire-resistant

ANA aerospace grade Nomex® honeycomb core is manufactured from Nomex® paper sheets and is coated and bonded together with a phenolic resin. Designed to offer users and designers high strength-to-weight properties at relatively low cost, Nomex® honeycomb is particularly suitable as a core material for production of sandwich structures requiring significant FST performance and using high performance fiber reinforced composites as the facing material. Typical applications include: > Sandwich panel applications > Aircraft flooring – varying densities depending on level of duty > Aircraft interiors – ranging from sidewalls, galleys, and ceilings, including commercial aerospace, business, and VIP interiors > Cargo lining > Aircraft leading and trailing edges > Helicopter rotor blades > Fuselage components Product benefits/features High strength-to-weight ratio Easily formed to shape Excellent fire-resistant and self-extinguishing properties to FAR 25.583 Corrosion resistance against water, oil, and fuel High temperature capabilities; service temperature up to 180°C (356°F) Good dielectric properties Cut to customer thickness specification
