^Divinycell HM Divinycell HM is our new ultra-performance core designed for fast marine hulls where extra toughness is required. Divinycell HM combines all the qualities of Divinycell H, plus a very high shear elongation. As a result, Divinycell HM is a very tough product, capable of absorbing high dynamic impacts such as slamming loads. Divinycell HM's very high elongation (above 40%) exceeds the minimum requirements of ISO12215, GL and ABS rules to allow for reduced safety factors in structural calculations, providing a lighter, yet strong structure. Divinycell HM offers a high operating...

Divinycell Matrix One of the latest additions to our offering, Divinycell Matrix, comes in two densities with different mechanical properties allowing naval architects to tailor their design even more for additional weight and cost savings. The technology behind Matrix 10.8 has allowed Diab to develop a 60 kg/m3 core with higher mechanical properties than our well respected H60. Matrix 7.7, with an average density of 55 kg/m3 and good compressive properties, is particularly suited for decks, superstructures or interiors, offering weight and cost savings compared to a 60 kg/m3 core. ProBalsa...
