Global Structural Core Materials Market Definition

Structural Core Materials are widely employed to build high-performance structures in architectural and other industrial applications. These materials are increasingly used in maritime, automotive, transportation, and other industries to improve energy efficiency by reducing weight. The finished building’s sound insulation, fire resistance, and thermal conductivity may be significantly enhanced using an appropriate core material during construction. The back-skin laminate, the core material, and the face-skin laminate are the three components that make up the sandwich structure, which is made of the core materials.

Utilizing the core enables the creation of a thicker laminate without significantly increasing weight, and the laminate provides the highest level of rigidity. Trucks, boats, cars, building panels, wind turbine blades, and other items frequently use this technology. A 3% weight increase can enhance stiffness seven times and flexural strength 3.5 times, provided structural core material and laminate are chosen suitably. Structural Core Materials are created in various shapes to accommodate different application landscapes, including PVC foam, end-grain balsa wood, non-woven core textiles, multiple materials, urethane foam, etc.
