Sandwich panels bond with advanced adhesive films

Abstract

Sandwich structures present several advantages, being used in many industries such as the aeronautical industry. In this study, an automated laminating line is employed to manufacture sandwich panels for boards. This work focus on an innovative solution, employing an advanced adhesive film to increase the bonding strength of sandwich structures used for this application. This was used to bond ceramic steel sheets to honeycomb-cored structures, creating an innovative solution for the board industry. Bending tests were carried to evaluate the performance of the new sandwich solutions and to compare it against a typical one available on the market.
