Product catalog summary

Overview

This document provides detailed technical information about Nidaplast composite sandwich panels, focusing on their application in boat building and other structural uses. It highlights the materials, mechanical properties, acoustic performance, certifications, and services offered by Nidaplast.

Materials and Core Composition

  • Core Material: 25 mm thick wooden-based core or extruded polypropylene honeycomb cores (Nidaplast® 8.65 and 8.100 HP).
  • Damping Layer: 900 g/m² viscoelastic damping sheet enhances vibration absorption.
  • Skin Options: Plywood, polyester, aluminum, or wooden skins can be laminated to the honeycomb core.
  • Additional Features: Reinforced films prevent resin or glue from filling honeycomb cells during lamination or gluing.

Mechanical and Acoustic Properties

  • The honeycomb core provides lightweight yet high-performance sandwich structures.
  • Viscoelastic polypropylene honeycombs offer superior damping loss factors compared to traditional materials, effectively reducing vibrations and noise from engines and structural movements.
  • Good rigidity, dimensional stability, and acoustic absorption contribute to overall structural comfort.
  • Honeycomb cores are adaptable to curved parts, making them suitable for complex boat structures.

Applications

Nidaplast composites are widely used in various sectors including:

  • Boat building (bridges, superstructures, cockpits, hull reinforcements, washrooms, flooring, partitions, roofs, interior layouts, and furnishings)
  • Transport
  • Building construction
  • Wind turbines
  • Sports and leisure equipment
  • Industrial goods and lightweight stone applications

Certifications and Quality Assurance

  • DNV Type Approval certificate no. K-4475
  • Germanischer Lloyd certification
  • ISO 9000 and ISO 14001 certified quality control laboratory

Technical Support and Services

  • Experienced engineers assist with product selection, design optimization, and manufacturing techniques such as hand lay-up, spray-up, RTM, and infusion.
  • Support for pre-sizing composite panels using analytical and digital methods.
  • Mechanical testing and quality control to ensure product performance and compliance.
  • Collaboration with design and production teams to optimize costs and meet project requirements.

Advantages of Nidaplast Honeycombs

  • Lightweight and resilient structure
  • Effective acoustic absorption and vibration damping
  • Thermal insulation properties
  • Waterproof and resistant to corrosion and bacteria
  • Good dimensional stability and rigidity
  • Cost-effective solution for structural sandwich panels

Processing and Finishing

  • Compatible with various lamination and gluing processes including contact, projection, infusion, and RTM.
  • Possibility to add local reinforcements or inserts before panel stratification for fixing parts.

Summary

Nidaplast composite sandwich panels, especially those with extruded polypropylene honeycomb cores, provide an optimal balance of mechanical strength, acoustic comfort, and lightweight construction. Their proven performance and certifications make them ideal for demanding applications in boat building and other industrial sectors. The company offers comprehensive technical support and quality assurance to ensure successful project outcomes.
