Overview

Duroplastics represents the DIAB International group that markets and manufactures the world's leading supplier of core materials such as brands such as Divinycell , Klegecell and Probalsa.

Core Materials are used due to their:

  • High strength to weight ratio
  • High stiffness
  • Excellent fatigue resistance
  • High impact resistance
  • Low water absorption
  • Low thermal Conductivity

Klegecell and Divinycell are PVC foams specially developed for performace applications in the marine, wind blade, military and transport industry. PVC Foams are used because of properties above as well as

  • Self extinguishing
  • Variable Densities from 40 to 450gm/litre
  • Operating temp -200 to 90 Deg C

Balsa on the other hand has a higher flexural strength and is cheaper than PVC foam cores
