Aramid Fiber/Phenolic Resin Honeycomb
Product Data Sheet
Description
HexWeb
HRH-10
is manufactured from NOMEX
aramid fiber sheets. A thermosetting adhesive is used to
bond these sheets at the nodes, and, after expanding to the hexagonal or OX-Core
configuration, the block is
dipped in phenolic resin. After curing the resin, slices are cut to the desired thickness. Using this process, a wide
range of cell sizes, paper thicknesses, and densities can be produced. The standard product line is shown under
Mechanical Properties.
Features
High strength at low densities
Small cell sizes at low densities
Damage resistant under normal shop use
Formable
Fire-resistant (self-extinguishing)
Water and fungus resistant
Excellent dielectric properties
Good bonding surfaces
Good thermal and electrical insulator
Applications
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been widely accepted throughout the aerospace industry and several commercial areas
as a very tough, environment resistant core material in sandwich panels. It has been designed and used in flat
and contoured shapes, with a wide variety of facing materials and adhesives, and it has extensive service in both
structural and nonstructural parts. Most of the interior panels of commercial jets, such as the 737, 747, 777,
767, 787, A320, A350, A380 etc., are made with this core material primarily because of its resilience, small cell
size/low density combination, and its fire resistance. Exterior aircraft parts such as radomes, fairings, helicopter
blades, flaps, etc., are designed with HexWeb
HRH-10
because of the features listed above. Surfboards
and high performance boats are but two additional applications where this core has been used because of its
toughness and resistance to corrosive attack. The OX-Core
configuration is a hexagonal HexWeb
honeycomb
that has been over expanded in the W direction, providing a rectangular cell shape that facilitates curving or form
in the L direction.

Thermal Conductivity Several honeycomb cores have been tested for thermal conductivity. The figure to the right shows the results of this evaluation for HexWeb
HRH-10
. The thermal conductivity
constant varies with cell size and core thickness because the air convection affects inside the cells. Note the following values were obtained with the heat flow from top to bottom of the panel.
Properties at Elevated Temperatures
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been tested for shear and
compressive strength at elevated temperatures and time
exposures up to 500 hours. Because the NOMEX
softens
between 450 F to 500 F, the properties drop off rapidly at
those temperatures; however, when returned to ambient
conditions, most of its original strength is retained.

Aramid Fiber/Phenolic Resin Honeycomb
Product Data Sheet
Description
HexWeb
HRH-10
is manufactured from NOMEX
aramid fiber sheets. A thermosetting adhesive is used to
bond these sheets at the nodes, and, after expanding to the hexagonal or OX-Core
configuration, the block is
dipped in phenolic resin. After curing the resin, slices are cut to the desired thickness. Using this process, a wide
range of cell sizes, paper thicknesses, and densities can be produced. The standard product line is shown under
Mechanical Properties.
Features
High strength at low densities
Small cell sizes at low densities
Damage resistant under normal shop use
Formable
Fire-resistant (self-extinguishing)
Water and fungus resistant
Excellent dielectric properties
Good bonding surfaces
Good thermal and electrical insulator
Applications
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been widely accepted throughout the aerospace industry and several commercial areas
as a very tough, environment resistant core material in sandwich panels. It has been designed and used in flat
and contoured shapes, with a wide variety of facing materials and adhesives, and it has extensive service in both
structural and nonstructural parts. Most of the interior panels of commercial jets, such as the 737, 747, 777,
767, 787, A320, A350, A380 etc., are made with this core material primarily because of its resilience, small cell
size/low density combination, and its fire resistance. Exterior aircraft parts such as radomes, fairings, helicopter
blades, flaps, etc., are designed with HexWeb
HRH-10
because of the features listed above. Surfboards
and high performance boats are but two additional applications where this core has been used because of its
toughness and resistance to corrosive attack. The OX-Core
configuration is a hexagonal HexWeb
honeycomb
that has been over expanded in the W direction, providing a rectangular cell shape that facilitates curving or form
in the L direction.

Thermal Conductivity Several honeycomb cores have been tested for thermal conductivity. The figure to the right shows the results of this evaluation for HexWeb
HRH-10
. The thermal conductivity
constant varies with cell size and core thickness because the air convection affects inside the cells. Note the following values were obtained with the heat flow from top to bottom of the panel.
Properties at Elevated Temperatures
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been tested for shear and
compressive strength at elevated temperatures and time
exposures up to 500 hours. Because the NOMEX
softens
between 450 F to 500 F, the properties drop off rapidly at
those temperatures; however, when returned to ambient
conditions, most of its original strength is retained.

Aramid Fiber/Phenolic Resin Honeycomb
Product Data Sheet
Description
HexWeb
HRH-10
is manufactured from NOMEX
aramid fiber sheets. A thermosetting adhesive is used to
bond these sheets at the nodes, and, after expanding to the hexagonal or OX-Core
configuration, the block is
dipped in phenolic resin. After curing the resin, slices are cut to the desired thickness. Using this process, a wide
range of cell sizes, paper thicknesses, and densities can be produced. The standard product line is shown under
Mechanical Properties.
Features
High strength at low densities
Small cell sizes at low densities
Damage resistant under normal shop use
Formable
Fire-resistant (self-extinguishing)
Water and fungus resistant
Excellent dielectric properties
Good bonding surfaces
Good thermal and electrical insulator
Applications
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been widely accepted throughout the aerospace industry and several commercial areas
as a very tough, environment resistant core material in sandwich panels. It has been designed and used in flat
and contoured shapes, with a wide variety of facing materials and adhesives, and it has extensive service in both
structural and nonstructural parts. Most of the interior panels of commercial jets, such as the 737, 747, 777,
767, 787, A320, A350, A380 etc., are made with this core material primarily because of its resilience, small cell
size/low density combination, and its fire resistance. Exterior aircraft parts such as radomes, fairings, helicopter
blades, flaps, etc., are designed with HexWeb
HRH-10
because of the features listed above. Surfboards
and high performance boats are but two additional applications where this core has been used because of its
toughness and resistance to corrosive attack. The OX-Core
configuration is a hexagonal HexWeb
honeycomb
that has been over expanded in the W direction, providing a rectangular cell shape that facilitates curving or form
in the L direction.

Thermal Conductivity Several honeycomb cores have been tested for thermal conductivity. The figure to the right shows the results of this evaluation for HexWeb
HRH-10
. The thermal conductivity
constant varies with cell size and core thickness because the air convection affects inside the cells. Note the following values were obtained with the heat flow from top to bottom of the panel.
Properties at Elevated Temperatures
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been tested for shear and
compressive strength at elevated temperatures and time
exposures up to 500 hours. Because the NOMEX
softens
between 450 F to 500 F, the properties drop off rapidly at
those temperatures; however, when returned to ambient
conditions, most of its original strength is retained.

Aramid Fiber/Phenolic Resin Honeycomb
Product Data Sheet
Description
HexWeb
HRH-10
is manufactured from NOMEX
aramid fiber sheets. A thermosetting adhesive is used to
bond these sheets at the nodes, and, after expanding to the hexagonal or OX-Core
configuration, the block is
dipped in phenolic resin. After curing the resin, slices are cut to the desired thickness. Using this process, a wide
range of cell sizes, paper thicknesses, and densities can be produced. The standard product line is shown under
Mechanical Properties.
Features
High strength at low densities
Small cell sizes at low densities
Damage resistant under normal shop use
Formable
Fire-resistant (self-extinguishing)
Water and fungus resistant
Excellent dielectric properties
Good bonding surfaces
Good thermal and electrical insulator
Applications
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been widely accepted throughout the aerospace industry and several commercial areas
as a very tough, environment resistant core material in sandwich panels. It has been designed and used in flat
and contoured shapes, with a wide variety of facing materials and adhesives, and it has extensive service in both
structural and nonstructural parts. Most of the interior panels of commercial jets, such as the 737, 747, 777,
767, 787, A320, A350, A380 etc., are made with this core material primarily because of its resilience, small cell
size/low density combination, and its fire resistance. Exterior aircraft parts such as radomes, fairings, helicopter
blades, flaps, etc., are designed with HexWeb
HRH-10
because of the features listed above. Surfboards
and high performance boats are but two additional applications where this core has been used because of its
toughness and resistance to corrosive attack. The OX-Core
configuration is a hexagonal HexWeb
honeycomb
that has been over expanded in the W direction, providing a rectangular cell shape that facilitates curving or form
in the L direction.
Standard Dimensions

Thermal Conductivity Several honeycomb cores have been tested for thermal conductivity. The figure to the right shows the results of this evaluation for HexWeb
HRH-10
. The thermal conductivity
constant varies with cell size and core thickness because the air convection affects inside the cells. Note the following values were obtained with the heat flow from top to bottom of the panel.
Properties at Elevated Temperatures
HexWeb
HRH-10
has been tested for shear and
compressive strength at elevated temperatures and time
exposures up to 500 hours. Because the NOMEX
softens
between 450 F to 500 F, the properties drop off rapidly at
those temperatures; however, when returned to ambient
conditions, most of its original strength is retained.

Divinycell HCP grade meets the demand for a high performance,
low density buoyancy material with excellent characteristics. It is
widely used in submarines, subsea buoyancy units, ROVs, diving
bells and impact protection structures. As a result of its excellent
hydraulic compressive properties and closed cell structure, it has
very low buoyancy loss and water absorption under long-term
loading conditions. HCP stands for Hydraulic Crush Point and is
defined as the point of pressure in Bar, where the material when
subjected to an increasing pressure of 1-2 Bar/sec has lost 5%
of its initial volume. The design of subsea buoyancy applications
is complex and consideration has to be given to the required
buoyancy loss and updrift requirements over the expected
lifetime and service conditions, with respect to long and short
term hydraulic compressive creep, water absorption and hydraulic
fatigue. Please contact Diab Technical Services for design proposal.

1. Typical values
2. Thermal conductivity at +50 F
1. Buoyancy above is calculated at surface level and with nominal density. Please contact Diab for detailed analyse before selecting material.
2. Operational depth above is calculated with a max 5% buoyancy loss over 10 years operational time.
Depth shown are for guidance only and can be optimized for individual conditions. Always contact Diab for advice before selecting material.
Buoyancy calculated in sea water (density 63.99 lb/ft3).
Operating temperature is typically -325 F to +176 F. Normally Divinycell HCP can be processed up to +194 F without dimensional changes.
Maximum processing temperature is dependent on time, pressure and process conditions. Therefore, users are advised to contact Diab Technical Ser-
vices to confirm that Divinycell HCP is compatible with their particular processing parameters.
