Definitions
- the present invention relates to a composite structure, in particular a sandwich structure comprising a structural layer C1, a layer C2 of lightening and possibly of reinforcement, in rigid or semi-rigid foam, and possibly a structural layer C3.
- the invention relates more particularly to a composite structure comprising a layer C2 of polyamide-based foam, a method of manufacturing and a use of this structure.
- Composite structures, in particular sandwich structures are used in many fields such as aeronautics, the automobile industry, the sports industry and leisure. These structures are used to produce sporting goods such as skis or else to produce various surfaces such as special floors, partitions, vehicle bodies, billboards etc.
- Composite structures can also be used for the manufacture of veranda covers, terraces, roofs, balconies, galleries, walls (cladding) etc.
- Composite structures with an internal lightening layer of polyurethane foam are also known.
- rigid polyurethane foams tend to crumble and also have low resistance to impact and fatigue. Their processing temperature is also limited.
- the present invention therefore provides a composite structure which does not have these drawbacks, and which in particular has good properties of rigidity, lightness, recyclability.
- the present invention therefore relates to a composite structure, in particular a sandwich structure, comprising at least: • a structural layer C1 • a lightening and optionally reinforcing layer C2, of rigid or semi-rigid foam • optionally a structural layer C3, the foam being a polyamide-based foam
- the composite structure is a sandwich structure comprising two external structural layers C1 and C3, and an internal layer of lightening C2.
- the structural layer of the composite structure is preferably in the form of a plate or sheet.
- a plate can be formed from several sheets having different orientations relative to each other in order to obtain a plate having good mechanical properties.
- the plates or sheets can have variable dimensions.
- the structural layer may be made of metal such as aluminum, a metal alloy such as steel, etc.
- the plates can be lacquered or covered with any suitable coating.
- the thickness of the structural layer of the composite structure of the invention is advantageously between 0.2 and 3 mm.
- the outer layer of the composite structure of the invention can comprise several layers.
- the overall thickness of the composite structure of the invention is between 3 and 50 mm.
- the density of the foam of the structure of the invention is preferably less than
