Evonik Rohacell® 71 FX Polymethacrylimide (PMI) Rigid Foam Plastic  (discontinued **)
Categories: Other Engineering Material; Composite Core Material; Polymer; Thermoset; Polymethacrylimide

Material Notes: ROHACELL® is produced by thermal expansion of a co-polymer sheet of methacrylic acid and methacrylonitrile. During the foaming process the copolymer sheet is converted to PMI - PolyMethacrylImide. Alcohol is used as a blowing agent, thus ROHACELL® contains no fluorinated carbon hydrates and is halogen free. It has a very homogeneous cell structure and isotropic properties.

Specific Notes for this Material: ROHACELL® FX is a closed-cell rigid foam plastic based on PMI (polymethacrylimide) which does not contain any CFCs. The fields of application for ROHACELL® FX are the construction of wind turbine blades and railcar structures. Curing temperature up to 130C (266F). Curing pressure up to 0.2 MPa (30 psi). Sandwich components using ROHACELL® FX as a core material can be realized in a single work step (=cocuring). Other commonly used techniques such as SCRIMP are applicable. ROHACELL® FX is easy to shape. Thermoformability is another advantage of the core material.
