HONEYCOMB NOMEX®

HONEYCOMB NOMEX®

Product catalog summary
Product Description: Nomex® is an aramid polymer known for its stable molecular structure. It is used to create non-metallic honeycombs by forming aramid paper into a honeycomb structure and coating it with phenolic resin. This combination results in a material with superior strength, toughness, and chemical resistance, suitable for both commercial and aerospace applications. The honeycomb cells are typically hexagonal for optimal mechanical properties but can be over-expanded for better drapeability in curved parts.
Key Features:
  • Outstanding chemical resistance
  • High mechanical strength at low densities
  • Fire retardant and self-extinguishing
  • Excellent impact and moisture resistance
  • Low smoke and toxic gas emission
  • Fungal growth resistance
  • Good dielectric properties
  • Low thermal conductivity
Applications: Nomex is used in aerospace (e.g., helicopter blades, interior panels) and industrial markets (e.g., marine, automotive parts).
Dimensions: Standard dimensions are 1250x2500 mm, with custom sizes available. Thickness ranges from 1.5 mm to 500 mm, with standard tolerance of +/- 0.12 mm.
Designation: Honeycomb descriptions include alloy type (commercial A10 or aero A1/HRH10), density, and cell size. Tolerances are +/- 17% for industrial and +/- 10% for aero grades.
Mechanical Properties: The document provides detailed mechanical properties for various honeycomb configurations, including compressive strength, shear strength, and modulus in different directions. These properties vary based on the cell size and density of the honeycomb.
Additional Notes: The document notes that commercial grade (A10) products have similar but slightly lower performance compared to aero grade (A1 or HRH10) due to less restrictive specifications.

HONEYCOMB NOMEX®-1

HONEYCOMB NOMEX® Product details Description Nomex® is an aramid polymer with molecular structure particularly stable. The paper Nomex® is obtained from different forms of aramid polymer. Non metallic honeycombs are manufactured from high temperature resistant aramid paper formed into a honeycomb structure and coated with a phenolic resin. The combination of aramid paper and phenolic resin gives commercial and aero grade of honeycomb in nomex with superior strength, toughness and chemical resistance.The honeycomb cell shapes is normally hexagonal for optimum mechanical properties. It can also be over-expanded to produce a rectangular cell shape and provide improved drapeability for the production of curved parts. Outsatanding resistance to corrosive attack by chemicals High mechanical strength at low densities Fire retardant and self extinguishing Excellent resistance to impact damage and moisture Low smoke and toxic gas emission Highly resistant to fungal growth Good dielectric properties, transparent radio and radar waves Low thermal conductivity Applications: Nomex is used in aerospace market (helicopters blades. Interior panels, flooring, flaps, engine nacelles) and into industrial markets (marine and all transportation, interior panels, flooring, racing boats shell, radar reflectors, precisional optical sysytem, automotive part). Dimension: The standard dimensions are mm1250x2500. We can also make different sizes on request. General tolerances -50 / + 100mm Thickness chosen by the customer: minimum 1.5 mm up to 500 mm depending on the type of cell. Tolerance Thickness : standard +/- 0.12 mm (+/- 0.05mm with extracost) Designation The complete description of the honeycomb provides: Alloy: description of the commercial grade (A10) or aero grade (A1 or HRH10) Density: weight of the material expressed in pounds / cubic feet or kg / m3 Cell: distance between two sides of the hexagon (mm or fraction of an inch); Also in version OX = rectangular Tolerances +/- 17% industrial type A10 +/- 10% aero grade A1 or HRH10 Pag 1/2 I.MA.TEC.
