Product introduction
ARCHCELL® MT
ARCHCELL® is a closed-cell rigid PMI (Polymethacrylimide) foam, which used as the core of lightweight sandwich structure.
MT(Medium Temperature) grade is suitable for middle temperature curing epoxy resin system
and can be compatible with the process condition of 130℃ and 0.3MPa. It is suitable (based on density) for various curing processes (Autoclave, vacuum infusion, RTM, VARTM, VARI, HP-RTM, etc.). It also can be easily thermoformed or CNC machined. As a basic grade, this foam has universal applicability.
The cell size is an important specification of the foam material and determines the difference in the amount of curing resin absorbed during the foam processing. We have divided it according to the cell size in order to better fit various processes and resin viscosities.
TYPICAL PROPERTY VALUES
ARCHCELL® MT-FC
FC is a fine cell structure that guarantees a lowest curing resin absorption of up to 50g/m2, thus reducing the weight of the final product, and is particularly suitable for vacuum infusion and RTM processes.
