CURV COMPOSITE PANEL
The Elylite
®
Curv panels are composed of two self-reinforced polypropylene skins combined with a
honeycomb core (HC), joined together by adhesive bonding. The panels consist of polypropylene (PP)
with a thin (70 micron) protective layer of PET and are consequently very cost effective and even
easy to glue.
These ultra light weight panels are designed to meet the highest performance characteristics in
stiffness and impact resistance, and are easily recyclable. The panels have been tested at tempera-
tures as low as -30°C. Unlike typical polymer materials, the Curv material is known not to show any
brittleness even at extremely low temperatures.
Composition
• Polypropylene honeycomb core with a density of 60 kg/m

.
• Two Curv skins of 0.92 mm. The skins are a 100% polypropylene (PP) composite; they consist of a unique woven structure of stretched PP bers,
protected by a thin (70 micron) layer of PET.
• Joined together by a high performance adhesion system.

Fire behavior
Uncoated Curv skins correspond to Class B2 according DIN 4102 which is described as “normal
flammability”.
The polypropylene honeycomb core material is estimated to correspond to Class B2.
Weather resistance
• Elylite
®
Curv composite panels are stable within a temperature range from -40 °C to +80 °C.
• Elylite
®
Curv composite panels are resistant to salt water, oil, fats and most other agents.
• Black Curv skins guarantee excellent UV-protection and do not show any signicant signs of ageing compared to other similar polymer materials.
• Water absorption of the panels is minimal.

Information on the use of the self-adhesive foam
0193xxS
Due to the manufacturing process, the carrier film and its adhesive layer may protrude over the edges of the foam. Transport or storage may also lead to the
appearance of creases in the carrier film.
Should the carrier film be removed carelessly or too quickly, the adhesive may stick to the carrier film in some places while being removed from the foam.
This can be easily avoided by pressing down on the carrier film of the ready-cut pieces with the side of the hand, a wooden ruler or something similar.
After that, the carrier film can be removed cleanly and easily
