Description

Premium High-Temperature PMI Structural Foam
Rifeng H is a closed-cell rigid foam based on Polymethacrylimide (PMI) polymer, completely free of CFC’s. It features a Coarse Cell Size, providing excellent machinability and superior surface adhesion. Its robust cell structure ensures maximum peel strength when combined with high-performance composite skins.


Rifeng H is specifically engineered for elite aeronautic and aerospace applications, including military and civil aircraft, satellite launching rockets, and heavy-duty UAVs. Its unmatched mechanical properties make it the standard material solution for primary structural aircraft components.

Superior Processing and Production Stability
Of all the Rifeng PMI foam grades, Rifeng H is best suited to withstand the most demanding process conditions. It maintains total dimensional stability during curing temperatures up to 180°C and pressures up to 0.7 MPa (dependent upon density).


It is the ideal core for advanced manufacturing techniques, including high-pressure autoclave processing, vacuum infusion (RTM, VARTM, VARI), and HP-RTM.

Weight Saving Efficiency
When building heavy-duty sandwich components, Rifeng H ensures that resin remains precisely at the interface. Its closed-cell structure eliminates internal resin migration, preventing undesirable "dead weight" and ensuring the highest strength-to-weight ratio for the finished parts.


Precision Thermoforming and Machining
Rifeng H is highly adaptable for complex geometries. It can be effortlessly CNC machined or thermoformed to meet stringent customer tolerances. We supply high-precision, pre-shaped cores ready for direct integration into aerospace assemblies.
