Divinycell® H80 Grid Scored + Grooved (1220 x 813 mm)
Divinycell® H80 Grid Scored + Grooved (Q200) features a grid-scored rigid foam sheet (GS30) with a groove running in one direction on both sides as a flow aid replacement. Where the two grooves intersect, a perforation is created that allows resin to flow to both sides of the core.
Divinycell® H80 Grid Scored + Grooved (Q200) facilitates vacuum-assisted resin transfer in curved moulds – reliably, quickly and robustly.
A lightweight glass fibre fabric is used on the opposite side of the grooves to reinforce the panel.
Key advantages:
- Reduces costs
- Reduces workload
- Large process range
- Quick and easy implementation of the selected infusion process

Divinycell® H is found to comply with
- DNV rules for classification – Ships
- DNV rules for classification – High speed and light craft
- DNV class programme DNV-CP-0084 – Type approval – Sandwich core materials
---> DNV Approval
Application:
Divinycell® H has a proven track record in virtually every application area where sandwich composites are employed, including the marine (leisure, military and commercial), land transportation, wind energy, civil engineering/infrastructure and general industrial markets.
Processing:
Continuous operating temperature is typically -200 ºC to +70 ºC. The foam can be used in sandwich structures, for outdoor exposure, with external skin temperatures up to +85 ºC.
Maximum processing temperature is dependent on time, pressure and process conditions.
