Structural Core Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Structural core materials are lightweight materials bonded between two composite skins to serve as the central member of a sandwich structure. PVC foam, end-grain balsa wood, non-woven core fabrics, urethane foam, and several types of honeycomb materials are examples of these materials. The addition of a core to a laminate increases the section modulus, resulting in increased stiffness and the ability to create lightweight structures. Structural core materials are generally used to create strong, stiff, and lightweight structures for high-performance products.
