Balsa core material QX Summer

Product description bCores® QX is a structural core suitable for composite applications. The core is made of balsa plywood orientated in 4 different directions (quadri-axial), which significantly improves mechanical properties, especially shear properties in length direction. The balsa plywood ensures an exceptionally high compression strength and stiffness with good bending properties of the core. The patented bCores® QX construction delivers constant quality and density. Processing guidelines  The QX core can be used in any classical manufacturing method (contact molding (hand/spray), vacuum infusion, resin infusion / injection (VARTM / RTM), adhesive bonding, Pre-preg processing, compression molding (GMT, SMC)).  Compatible with most standard resins.  Processing temperatures up to 150°C and manufacturing pressure up to 15 bards can be used.  Please consider our process guidelines.
