3D|CORE™ PET PROPERTIES AND TECHNICAL DATA Status: 01.02.2021 The 3D|CORE™ PET is a closed-cell, thermoplastic, and recyclable rigid foam with excellent technical properties. It is suitable for the construction of high-strength lightweight components. The honeycomb structure provides more flexibility and is easy to handle. The core is applicable with all known resin systems and processes. Certified according DNV GL. Available with FR grade according to EN 45545-2 and IMO 2010 FTP Code Part 5. PROPERTIES Excellent fatigue resistance Excellent long-term thermal stability up to 100°C Very high processing temperature up to 180°C Closed-cell foam (no water absorption, no re-expansion, no outgassing) Easy processing with all known resin systems and processes Very high chemical resistance Homogenous connection of all components Excellent surface adhesion (connection between the surfaces and core) Highly consistent material properties Good thermal insulation Integrated flow mesh APPLICATION Rail and road vehicles: roofs, floor panels, interior, front masks, side panels Ship and boat building: hull, deck, mast, superstructures, interior, keel Industrial components: container, covers, safety doors, sleeves, sport equipment Architecture and Construction: roofs, walls, panels Aviation: interior, kitchen furniture, radoms Motorsport: spoiler, bonnet, side elements, trunk lid Automotive: underbody protection, battery box, trunk plate, chassis Sports: Kanu, Surfboard, Skateboard PROCESSING Hand lay-up Vacuum Infusion Vacuum Assisted RTM (VARTM, LRTM and HP-RTM) Wet pressing Autoclave Prepreg SMC Bonding

3D|CORE™ PET TECHNICAL DATA Status: 01.02.2021 FOAM TYPE (1): The values above are the actual values of the suppliers of the precursor material. We cannot give a guarantee for the quality of the values and the related measurements. 3D|CORE primarily evaluates the properties of processing of the individual foam system knowing that the quality of the foam core is essential for the quality of the composite. The size of cavities and the properties have a major influence of the final part. Please regard that every part requires its own calculation of strength and component testing....
