Aluminum honeycomb sandwich panels are commonly used as spacecraft structures. The panels have a high specific rigidity, but are expensive. We have developed light-weight, low-cost sandwich panels using integral molding of CFRP-prepreg and light weight plastic foam. This panel has good workability, and thus higher design flexibility. In this paper, we report recent research results on the light weight sandwich panel, including simulation analysis and fracture tests. Analytical and experimental results show that further improvement in fracture strength of the panel will be expected.
