Products Description
18 mm aluminum honeycomb panel is a high-performance, lightweight sandwich-structured composite material. It is widely used in construction, interior decoration, and furniture manufacturing due to its excellent flatness, strength, and stability.
Basic Structure
A standard panel consists of three layers bonded under high heat and pressure:
Face Sheets (Top & Bottom): High-strength aluminum alloy (usually 3000 series). Standard thicknesses are 0.7–1.5 mm (top) and 0.5–1.0 mm (bottom).
Core: Hexagonal aluminum honeycomb core (aluminum foil thickness: 0.04–0.07 mm).
Adhesive: High-strength epoxy or polymer film.
Key Specifications
Total Thickness: 18 mm.
Standard Sheet Size: Typically 1220 × 2440 mm or 1220 × 2750 mm (custom sizes available).
Surface Finish:
PE (Polyester): For interior use, good cost-effectiveness.
PVDF (Fluorocarbon): For exterior use, superior weather & corrosion resistance.
Special Finishes: Wood grain, stone texture, matte, glossy, brushed.
Fire Rating: Non-combustible, usually reaches A2 Grade.
Core Advantages
Lightweight & High Strength: ~70% lighter than solid aluminum or plywood but offers exceptional rigidity and load-bearing capacity. A 30×60 cm panel can hold 50 kg with minimal deflection.
Perfect Flatness: Excellent dimensional stability, no warping, ideal for large-area applications.
Moisture & Weather Proof: Aluminum is impervious to water, preventing rot, mildew, and deformation.
Sound & Thermal Insulation: The honeycomb core structure provides effective sound dampening (≈25dB reduction) and heat insulation.
Eco-Friendly: 100% recyclable, zero formaldehyde emissions.
Machinability: Easily cut, drilled, and processed to fit standard furniture and construction hardware.
Common Applications
Building & Facades: Curtain walls, exterior cladding, column cladding.
Interior Decoration: Wall panels, ceilings, doors, partitions.
Furniture & Cabinetry: Ideal for wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, and countertops. The 18mm thickness matches traditional board standards, eliminating the need for straighteners on large doors.
Transportation: Ship, train, and vehicle interiors.
Specialty Uses: Clean rooms, lab tables, and anti-static applications.
Why Choose 18 mm?
The 18 mm thickness is the industry standard because it strikes the perfect balance:
Thinner (e.g., 12mm): Lacks rigidity for large spans and tends to bend.
Thicker (e.g., 25mm): Heavier, more costly, and visually bulky.18mm is the most versatile and cost-effective choice for most structural and decorative projects.
