A septum (18) is installed at a desired depth within a section of honeycomb core (12) for use in a sound attenuation panels, the septum is sandwiched between two layers (20, 24) of support material having a melting temperature intermediate between the fusing and curing temperatures of the septum mat

A septum (18) is installed at a desired depth within a section of honeycomb core (12) for use in a sound attenuation panels, the septum is sandwiched between two layers (20, 24) of support material having a melting temperature intermediate between the fusing and curing temperatures of the septum material. The honeycomb core (12) is pressed into supporting materials and septum to segment and position the septum (18) therein, after which the resultant assembly is heated sufficiently to allow the septum to fuse and adhere to the honeycomb core. The resultant assembly is then heated sufficiently to melt the support material and allow it to be drained away, leaving the segmented septum (18) in place within the honeycomb core.

A honeycomb structure formed by inserting a honeycomb core through a septum material and one or more layers of meltable support material, employed to precisely position the septum material relative to said honeycomb core comprising: a honeycomb core having a plurality of cells therethrough, a plurality of septum sections positioned within each cell of said honeycomb core, said sections lying substantially in a common plane and placed a predetermined distance from one surface of said core and said septum sections being comprised of a fuseable material having a fusion temperature below the melting point of said supporting materials and a resin curing temperature above the melting point of said supporting materials, a first bonding sheet attached to said core to close off the segmented cells on one side of the said segments, and a second bonding sheet attached to said core to close off the segmented cell on the opposite side of said segments.
