This is my first visit to the forum. I am not involved with the composite industry so recently contacted Easy Composites to ask if they could recommend anywhere that may have an interest in some 5/8" Nomex honeycombe core material, and the guys suggested this forum. In summary the sheets are 8ft*4ft and I have around 27 in total.  Can anyone point me in the direction of a market that may use this type of core?

Assuming the nomenclature they have used is pretty typical, that looks like a 3.2mm cell size in a 48kg/m3 weight with a slice thickness of 16mm.

It looks like a slightly thicker paper than I have seen for similarly small cell size nomexs. eg our aerospace nomex in a 3.2 is much lighter in colour and looks to have a thinner paper thickness.  The paper above looks more similar to our 4.8mm nomex which is a thicker paper and hence higher density overall. 

I guess the manufacturer should be able to supply you with a datasheet for the basic specification.
