Advancements in the manufacture of honeycomb cores

This paper will present the latest improvements to make honeycomb cores, some of which are not yet available at the commercial honeycomb manufacturing facilities, and to provide insight for honeycomb core users the applications with respect to the physical & chemical properties of honeycomb core in a wide range of industries and applications. Honeycomb cores included for this paper will include: Nomex(TM), Fiberglass and Carbon Graphite Cores for Aerospace Use Polyester (PET) Cores for Industrial Applications Metallic Cores as Catalytic Converter Substrates Multicomposite Substrate Honeycomb Cores for Advanced Applications in Outer Space.
