    The document discusses sandwich composites, which are materials made of two thin but stiff skins bonded to a lightweight core. Common core materials include foams, honeycomb, and balsa wood. Sandwich composites provide high bending stiffness with low density. They are widely used in applications like construction, transportation, and aerospace due to advantages like strength, stiffness, insulation, and ease of installation.

    INTRODUCTION
    • A sandwich structured composite is a special
    class of composite material that is fabricated
    by attaching two thin but stiff skins to a
    lightweight but thick core. The core material
    is normally low strength material, but its
    higher thickness provides the sandwich
    composite with high bending stiffness
    with overall low density.

    • Open and closed cell structured foam, polystyrene, balsa wood, syntactic
    foam and honeycomb are commonly used core materials. Glass or carbon
    fiber reinforced laminates are widely used as skin materials. Sheet metal is
    also used as skin materials in some cases. ANNUAL PRODUCTION IN
    WORLD- 500 million m² ,of 10 billion€ per year.
    Why a Sandwich ?
    Long ago engineers realized that by
    adding a core to a material, the
    strength and stiffness could be
    dramatically increased with very
    little added weight. Cores, in
    comparison to the additional
    structural value they add, are
    extremely cost effective. With a
    sandwich, less material is required
    than with a solid structure.
    APPLICATIONS
    • ROOFING

    • WALL CLADDING

    • COLD ROOM WALLING


    • PARTITION WALL
    • AEROSPACE
    • MOBILE HOMES
    • MODULAR HOMES
    • SANDWICH PUFF PANELS
    These panels consists of two facings of relatively thin metal sheet profiled of high
    strength enclosing a core, which is relatively thick and light with required stiffness. The
    facings are of aluminum or steel.

    • Thicknesses -30 to 120 mm


    • Width -1000 mm to 1200 mm
    • Maximum Length -15 meter

    • Sandwich panel: gypsum plasterboards


    and carton
    Mostly used in partitions.

    • Insulation sandwich panel in wood and PVC foam (waterproof)


    Resistant to hydrocarbons, alkalis, diluted acids,
    methyl alcohol, sea water, petrol and diesel fuel,
    and can be used with polyester, vinylester and epoxy
    resins. Reduce weight upto 80% compare to plywood.
    • Acoustic metal sandwich panel
    aluminum structural panel is light, resistant, incombustible, 100%
    recyclable and economical. Because of its flexibility, the panel can
    be applied in different fields: building, interiors, exhibition design
    and stands e.t.c.
    Thickness- 4-50mm
    Width- 1050-1200mm
    Length- upto 5000mm

    • Rigid sandwich insulation panel in wood and polystyrene


    These are the panels which can add crystalline effect in the
    appearance.
    Also can be used to cover walls and attics
    • EPS(Expanded polystyrene) Sandwich panel
    Composed of 2 layers of weather
    proof colored steel sheet and
    jetted hard forms of polyurethane
    between 2 layers(fireproof material).
    Suitable for various roofs and walls
    referring to the large size factory
    Thickness- 50-200m
    • PU(Polyurethane)Sandwich panel
    Light self-weight:10 to 14kg/sqm.
    Installation is convenient and
    flexible without the large-size
    lifting devices so that the construction
    period is limited with the lower
    comprehensive costs.
    Thickness- 75-200mm
    STRUCTURAL INSULATED PANELS
    The common characteristic of all SIPs are
    two exterior skins adhered to a rigid plastic
    foam core. Typical product dimensions are
    300, 600, or 1,200 mm wide and 2.4, 2.7,
    and 3 m long, with roof SIPs up to 6 m long

    • The board can be sheet metal, plywood, cement or oriented strand board
    (OSB) and the foam either expanded polystyrene foam (EPS), extruded
    polystyrene foam (XPS) or polyurethane foam.
    EPS is the most common of the foams used material for the construction of
    SIP.
    These are widely used in Mobile homes and Modular homes.

    ADVANTAGES OF SANDWICH PANELS
    • Fast installation and ease of handling
    • Crane assembly therefore no scaffolding required
    • No thermal bridges and good thermal insulation properties
    • Design flexibility with choice of colour finishes
    • Panels can be installed horizontally or vertically
    • Reliable robust mechanical performance
    • Outstanding non combustible and acoustic performance
    • Resistance to weather and aggressive environments
    • Ease of installation
    • Long life and very low maintenance cost
    • Easy repair and replacement in case of damage
