3A Composites Core Materials AIREX® C71.75 Elevated Temperature Structural Foam
Categories: Other Engineering Material; Composite Core Material; Polymer

Material Notes: AIREX® C71 is a closed cell, crosslinked polymer foam especially formulated to maintain its stability also at higher processing or service temperatures. It combines excellent stiffness and strength to weight ratios with superior toughness. It is non-friable, contains no CFC’s, has negligible water absorption, and provides an excellent resistance to chemicals. A fine cell structure offers an excellent bonding surface. Compatible with most resins and manufacturing processes AIREX® C71 is ideally suited as a core material for a wide variety of lightweight sandwich structures subjected to both static and dynamic loads, and exposed to elevated temperatures during manufacturing.

Characteristics

  • outstanding strength and stiffness to weight ratios
  • High temperature resistance
  • Good impact strength
  • High fatigue resistance
  • Low resin absorption (fine cell structure)
  • Good fire performance (self-extinguishing)
  • Sound and thermal insulation
  • Good styrene resistance
  • Dimensionally stable and non biodegradable
Applications
  • Wind Energy: Rotor blades, nacelles, turbine generator housings
  • Road and Rail: Roof panels, interiors, floors, doors, partition walls, side skirts, front-ends
  • Marine: Hulls, decks, bulkheads, superstructures, engine hatches
  • Aircraft: Interiors, radomes, galley carts, general aviation (sport aircraft)
  • Recreation: Skis, snowboards, surfboards, wakeboards, canoes, kayaks
  • Industrial: Tooling, tanks, ductwork, containers, covers
