HIGH-PERFORMANCE, LOW-DENSITY SYNTACTIC MATERIAL
The solution for subsea buoyancy applications
High Performance,Low-Density Syntactic Material
Our specialist low-density syntactic materials with densities ranging from 385 – 650 kg/m3 are designed and qualified for use in seawater depths of down to 11,500 metres.
Comprising high-grade hollow glass microspheres (HGMS) and a novel thermoset polymer matrix, our syntactic materials are formulated to produce ultra-high strength-to-weight materials with excellent water ingress resistance. This makes them the ideal solution for deep sea applications such as remotely operated vehicles (ROV), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) and human-operated vehicles (HOV)
From Blocks to Finished Modules
Our syntactic materials are cast into standard block sizes, ready for use and assembly. Our network of technical partners also ensures we can deliver finished buoyancy modules to meet your specifications.
About Base Materials
Base Materials is recognised as a leading provider of innovative
technology.
This reputation stems from our continuous investment
in R&D and our desire to drive technology forward. We create value
across the entire manufacturing process providing a positive end-user experience for our customers.
Building on our extensive knowledge and expertise in working with
composite materials, we are developing our own
range of syntactic materials specifically
formulated for subsea buoyancy applications.
Subsea Buoyancy Applications
Our range of syntactic materials is suitable for a range
of subsea applications including remotely operated vehicles (ROV),
autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) and human-operated vehicles (HOV).
