A composite panel comprises first and second sheets 20, 22 of a natural fibre material such as corrugated cardboard, each sheet 20, 22 having been impregnated with a liquid composition comprising a thermosetting resin, an extending liquid for the thermosetting resin and a catalyst for the thermosetting resin, the thermosetting resin having been polymerized, a cellular core 10 of a natural fibre material such as kraft paper, the cellular core 10 having been impregnated with a liquid composition comprising a thermosetting resin, an extending liquid for the thermosetting resin and a catalyst for the thermosetting resin, the thermosetting resin having been polymerized, the cellular core 10 being sandwiched between and adhered to the first and second sheets 20, 22; and a filler composition located in all of the cells of the core 10, the filler composition comprising a mixture of an inorganic insulating material and a material which releases water at elevated temperatures, in granular form. The composite panel is an acoustic absorber and thermal insulator and is fire resistant. <IMAGE> |
