Gurit® Corecell™ S shares the benefits of SAN chemistry common to all Gurit® Corecell™ products.

Fine cell size – Resin absorption is very low, saving both weight and cost

Superior uniformity – More consistent density than resin-based syntactics

Outgassing – Gurit® Corecell™ reduces the problems of foam outgassing

Compatibility – Suitable for use with all polyester, vinylester and epoxy resins

No inhibition - Gurit® Corecell™ does not inhibit any epoxy resin curing mechanisms

Handling – Robust for easy machining and use

Gurit® Corecell™ S has been designed specifically for use in sub-sea buoyancy applications. Its resistance to crushing means that it can withstand depths of over 2500m, and its closed-cell structure gives it a high water resistance that ensures buoyancy is maintained over time. With its very high compressive strength, Gurit® Corecell™ S can also replace other materials, such as plywood, when creating high strength inserts for through[1]bolting in composite laminates.

Having the smallest cell size of all the Gurit® Corecell™ products, Gurit® Corecell™ S absorbs very little resin in lamination processes, thus minimizing weight gain. The small cell size and the product’s inherent toughness also contribute to the excellent machinability of Gurit® Corecell™ S. Complex shapes can be created in Gurit® Corecell™ S using a variety of milling, routing, sawing and drilling techniques.

Gurit® Corecell™ S is available at lower densities that can be achieved with a syntactic, with standard products ranging from 200 to just over 450kg/m3.
