The majority of honeycomb applications involve :
mechanical properties;
has their thermal conductivity.
3.1 Mechanical properties
In addition to the nature of the polymer, including its possible cross-linking, the mechanical properties of foams depend on :
(apparent) density, which can vary widely, from a few kg/m 3 to around 1,000 kg/m 3 for lightweight polymers;
structure: open or closed cells ;
any anisotropy.
The diversity...
