Nomex® Honeycomb sheet
DuPont™ Nomex® honeycomb composites helps to provide lightweight strength, stiffness, toughness, corrosion resistance, which bring high value-in-use to industries such as mass transportation, aerospace, construction, and marine shipping. For more than 30 years, the transportation industry has embraced Nomex® honeycomb composite made with DuPont™ Nomex® for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, which assists to provide vital cost-effective benefits like energy savings and payload increases. Stiff, thin Nomex® sheet structures are used to help make strong, yet lightweight, honeycomb sandwich composite found in aircraft parts such flooring panels, interior walls, storage bins, exterior control surfaces, engine nacelles, and helicopter blades and tail booms. Nomex® honeycomb composites are also used in the construction of boats to help provide buoyancy that enhances speed.
