DuFlex Balsa panels are available with standard 150kg/m3 or select grade "SuperLite" 100 kg/m3 end grain balsa cores. The balsa is plantation grown and kiln-dried and processed in an "end-grain" configuration
The properties of end grain balsa make it ideal as a core for sandwich construction. It has extremely high strength and stiffness-to -weight ratios, and achieves an excellent bond with all types of resins and adhesives.
End grain balsa also has excellent fire performance, good sound & thermal insulation, and high impact strength, making it an excellent choice as a core for high performance composite panels.
Duflex Foam panels are cored with either structural linear or cross-linked foam cores.
Closed-cell foams in structural panels combine a high stiffness and strength-to-weight ratios with superior toughness. The cores are non-friable, contain no CFC's, and have negligible water absorption.
Structural foams used in DuFLEX Composite Panels provide low weight, excellent stiffness, good impact strength, and good sound & thermal insulation.
Specifically designed for non-structural interior applications, Featherlight Marine Grade panels have been developed to optimise weight and dimensional stability, making them ideally suited as lightweight building panels for the construction of interiors for sailing yachts.
West System epoxy resin cures to a high-strength plastic solid at room temperatures, by mixing specific proportions of liquid epoxy resin and hardener. This highly moisture-resistant plastic adheres to a wide range of materials, making it ideal for projects that require water and chemical resistance, and strong physical properties for structural bonding.
Hardener Options
Fast Hardener is used, in the majority of situations, at lower temperatures to produce a rapid cure that develops its physical properties quickly at room temperature.
Slow Hardener is used when extended working and cure time is needed, or to provide adequate working time at higher temperatures.
Super Slow / Tropical Hardener is formulated for general coating and bonding applications in extremely warm and/or humid conditions, or when extended working time is desired at room temperature.
