Divinycell H provides excellent mechanical properties to low weight.
The unique PVC chemical structure, yields impressive mechanical
performance to a low weight. Divinycell H has been widely used and
has a proven track record in virtually every application area where
sandwich composites are employed including the marine (leisure,
military and commercial), land transportation, wind energy, civil
engineering/infrastructure and general industrial markets.
Divinycell H is ideal for applications subject to fatigue, slamming or
impact loads. Other key features of Divinycell H include consistent
high quality, excellent adhesion/peel strength, excellent chemical
resistance, low water absorption and good thermal/acoustic
insulation. Divinycell H is compatible with virtually all commonly
used resin and manufacturing systems.
Divinycell PVC foams also feature very low resin uptake, enabling
weight and cost saving.

Nominal value is an average value of a mechanical property at nominal density.
Minimum value is a minimum guaranteed mechanical property a material has independently of density.
TECHNICAL DATA
Divinycell H
The foam can be used in sandwich structures, for outdoor exposure, with external skin temperatures up to +85 C.
Maximum processing temperature is dependent on time, pressure, and process conditions. To confirm that Divinycell H is compatible with users particular
processing parameters and for optimal design of applications used in high operating temperatures in combination with continuous load, please contact
Diab Technical Services.
