The superior adhesion stems from the foam’s micro-porous surface morphology, which is created during the controlled expansion process. This surface provides an ideal profile for mechanical interlocking with structural adhesives like epoxies and polyurethanes, while its surface energy ensures excellent chemical bonding. This bond is the absolute foundation of structural integrity. If adhesion fails under negative wind pressure or shear loads, the face sheet delaminates, causing immediate and catastrophic loss of load-bearing capacity. Our validated bonding system ensures the core and face sheets act as a monolithic structure, even under hurricane-level forces.
