Superior construction materials are increasingly needed to match the complexity and artistic vision of modern buildings with innovative architectural designs. Because of the increasing demand for quality and precision in building materials, builders and architects are seeking specialized expertise. Julong is well-known for meeting these high standards with custom-made aluminum honeycomb panels.
At Julong, we use cutting-edge technology and creative solutions to help our clients realize their architectural dreams. Our aluminum honeycomb panels are intended to improve the appearance, thermal efficiency, and energy performance of a building. We also offer specialized services in the fabrication, planning, and installation of these panels to ensure maximum performance and durability.
Continue reading to learn about the benefits of aluminum honeycomb panels and how they can be used to strengthen and beautify a structure.
An aluminum honeycomb panel is made up of an aluminum honeycomb core sandwiched between double layers of aluminum sheets. A special thermoplastic adhesive bonds these components together to form a solid composite panel.
Because of its high thermal performance and tensile strength, aluminum is an excellent material for custom aluminum honeycomb panels. Furthermore, its aesthetics are unrivaled by other lightweight metals. Aluminum becomes exceptionally long-lasting and durable for the most demanding applications with honeycomb core technology while remaining cost-effective.
A honeycomb aluminum panel, in addition to its high strength and low weight, can be customized in any size and with specific adhesives to suit any application. Our panels have been used in a variety of projects, including marine, transportation, cladding, flooring, and ceilings. We offer powder coating, PVDF, heat transfer printing, PE, and other treatments to make each panel more unique and capable of meeting aesthetic requirements.
Another advantage of aluminum is its ease of shaping and forming into specific geometries. We have the technology and tools at Julong to deliver odd-shaped honeycomb aluminum panels, such as 3d, 90-degree return, and curved. We are confident in our ability to provide high-quality materials to meet any design or architectural specification.
The manufacturing process can influence the strength and appearance of aluminum honeycomb panels. At Julong, we use epoxy thermoplastic films to join all layers of aluminum sheets and the honeycomb core. These components are hot-pressed at temperatures ranging from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius to form a secure and complete composite panel that is weather-resistant and elastic and can withstand extreme temperatures ranging from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius. Given these advantages, we guarantee strong and long-lasting materials that will keep your structure standing and looking good for many decades.
It's all about the bonding. When creating a honeycomb aluminum panel, one of the most important factors to consider is the adhesive.
To laminate the layers, Julong employs specially formulated thermoplastic adhesive films. At room temperature, the material is solid, but it melts at 130 degrees Celsius.
Because of its high elasticity, thermoplastic film is more weather-resistant than regular epoxy. As a result, it moves with the substrate without fail, even when subjected to rapid temperature changes. Furthermore, it can withstand extreme heat during the summer.
Another advantage of thermoplastic films over epoxy is their significantly higher production efficiency. As a result, we can get the panels to your construction site faster and help you finish your project on time.
Julong manufactures aluminum honeycomb panels with a patented epoxy-friendly coating for applications that require increased bonding strength. We coat aluminum sheets with a patented epoxy-friendly layer, which improves bonding and tensile strength by more than 50%. As a result, our products become more adaptable to both interior and exterior applications.
Our honeycomb aluminum panels are available in widths up to 2000mm and lengths up to 6000mm, with thicknesses ranging from 5 mm to 500 mm. Furthermore, for specific applications, we provide the following finishes:
PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) is an appropriate paint for exterior aluminum sheets. This option is recommended for structures that are subjected to extreme weather and temperatures. As a result, it is excellent for exterior cladding, marine panels, mold panels, and roof panels.
We recommend polyethylene (pe) paint to coat each honeycomb aluminum panel for indoor decorations. This finish is also suitable for aluminum furniture, partitions, and ceilings.
Honeycomb sheet panels are protected from oxidation by anodizing aluminum. This is done on the invisible side of the veneer or stone panel by Julong. We also offer epoxy-coated aluminum to prevent corrosion while improving glue-bonding performance. As a result, the honeycomb core's pull strength increases to 2.0mpa, making the material suitable for use as a backing for laminates containing natural stone, veneer, porcelain, solar components, or wood.
Other materials, such as natural or engineered stone, can be laminated with aluminum honeycomb panels. You can use a mill finish to improve their aesthetics without sacrificing weather and temperature resistance.
Julong creates patterns on the panel with heat transfer printing technology, such as stone veins and wood grain. This allows us to customize the panels for interior or exterior use while avoiding the use of natural materials.
Steel is ideal for exterior and interior applications that require maximum fire performance while maintaining aesthetics. This requirement can be met by replacing the bottom and aluminum sheets with galvanized or stainless steel. Furthermore, we can finish the panels in a variety of ways, including mirror, sanding, hairline, or etched, and in a variety of colors.
