Polypropylene honeycomb is mainly used as core in
composite panels, as reinforcement and as means to lighten structures. The
honeycomb is closed on its both sides with a thermo-welded tissue. In case of
bending the strain is transferred by the honeycomb core. That is why the strain
is shared out in shear and compression over laminates.
