Abstract

Aircraft floor panels where core-skin bonding is improved between honeycomb and composite face sheets (skins) by applying a nylon-based (polyamide) adhesive to the edge of the honeycomb prior to bonding. Edge coating of the honeycomb allows one to reduce panel weight without reducing the performance parameters that are required for different types of aircraft floor panels.
