Honeycomb materials are available for sale in Leander. This is a lightweight core material that possesses a number of mechanical and thermal properties. It makes use of the natural pattern of honeycomb formation, which are put together by bees for storing honey. The cell sizes and densities can vary widely. Thermoplastic, fiberglass, carbon, aluminum and aramid mechanical papers are used to make these. These are manufactured in different ways, based on customer specfications. These are used in the aerospace industry. These materials are used where high strength-to-weight ratio, energy absorption or directional qualities are needed. Other applications where this can be used include sound attenuation, airflow control and dielectric applications. The manufacturing material, its size and density are varied with the intended application in Leander.
