Plascore PP Polypropylene Honeycomb PP1-4.0-N1-10

Plascore PP Polypropylene Honeycomb PP1-4.0-N1-10 exhibits a unique cell structure. The core has 3 orientations vs. the 2 orientations common with other honeycomb, making its properties more uniform. Each cell has a tubular form and is inherently stable. PP polypropylene honeycomb is supplied with or without a non-woven polyester veil for better bonding. It is also supplied with or without a film barrier under the polyester veil to limit the amount of resin consumption.
