SynComb Syntactic Foam Filled Honeycomb

High-performance honeycomb cores filled with our SynFoam ELG syntactic foam for lightweight structural applications.

SynComb syntactic foam filled honeycomb panel

Key Properties

  • Aramid, carbon fiber, fiberglass, and aluminum honeycomb
  • Up to 1.5 in. thick
  • Minimum cell diameter: 1/16 in.
  • Custom panel sizes
  • Filled with SynFoam ELG or custom SynFoam castable grades

SynComb combines the lightweight efficiency of honeycomb with the strength and durability of syntactic foam. Each cell is filled with SynFoam ELG, creating a production-ready composite core that improves handling, machining, moisture resistance, and compressive performance.

Benefits

  • Excellent strength-to-weight ratio
  • Improved compressive and localized crush resistance
  • Reduced moisture intrusion
  • Easier machining and edge finishing
  • Ready for composite layup and bonding
  • Custom engineered solutions available

Available Core Materials

SynComb has been used with the following core materials. Other materials are available upon request:

  • Aramid Honeycomb
  • Carbon Fiber Honeycomb
  • Fiberglass Honeycomb
  • Aluminum Honeycomb

Applications

  • Aerospace interiors
  • Marine structures
  • Defense systems
  • Composite sandwich panels
  • UAVs and drones
  • Industrial equipment
  • Vehicle body panels
  • Scientific instrumentation

Custom Manufacturing

While SynFoam ELG is our standard filling material, SynComb can be manufactured using other SynFoam castable syntactic foam grades to optimize density, compressive strength, buoyancy, thermal performance, machining characteristics, and other application-specific properties.
