FIBRE-METAL HYBRID LAMINATE MATERIAL FOR SHIPBUILDING AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREOF

摘要

This invention refers to a fibre-metal hybrid laminated material for naval construction, formed by alternate layers of steel and compound material of polymeric compound reinforced with fibreglass. By means of combining these materials, the positioning and the precise orientation of each layer, the bonding of the different layers together using elastic structural adhesives and the assembly of the panels, a final product with superior features is achieved. The result is a lighter, resistant, tough and safe material that can be designed to measure to meet the specific requirements of each area of the structure. The modular manufacturing process is capable of adapting to flat as well as curved geometries.
