On stand K26 at the JEC Show in Paris, world leading sandwich composite solution provider DIAB will continue making its customers’ products stronger, lighter and more competitive by introducing new additions to its wide range of core materials and sandwich composite solutions.
Introducing Matrix 10-8, the best DIAB product ever DIAB continues to expand the Divinycell Matrix range with a new grade, Matrix 10-8. With a compression and shear strength positioned at 1,0 and 0,84 MPa at a nominal density of only 60 kg/m3 DIAB is launching its best product ever. Matrix 10-8 complements the already launched Matrix 7-7 and 11-9 as well as the current Divinycell H range, providing probably the widest and most high performing range in the industry. The excellent strength to weight ratio will be very valuable in Wind, Marine, Transportation and Industry applications.
Introducing One Directional Cut, ODC One of the main purposes of using finishing is that it makes the core material formable. This is normally done by creating different shaped grid scores in the core material, supported with a thin glass fiber veil. Using standard grid scored finishing material when manufacturing parts that have a single curvature leaves the scores in the “non curved” direction open. By only having cuts were the curvature is needed, the resin consumption is reduced by approx. 50%.The remaining cuts, utilized to get a curvature, are closed resulting in further savings in weight and cost of resin. ODC is available in most grades and densities and it can be combined with several other finishes from our wide range to create further benefits.
