Honeycomb structure having honeycomb core arranged parallel to a panel surface and a manufacturing process therefor

A honeycomb storage system for at least one of storing and transporting sensitive or volatile materials, said system comprising:

• a plurality of honeycomb storage devices, each of the honeycomb storage devices including a plurality of six-corner surface tubes arranged in parallel to each other to form a predetermined shape such that the tubes are longitudinally attached to each other and positioned in a honeycomb structure wherein viewed in cross-section, wherein
• each of the plurality of six-corner surface tubes includes a hollow internal tank, and is formed from pre-impregnated fibre-reinforced plastic (FRP prepreg) molded into the six-corner surface with a hexagonal shape in cross-section surrounding the hollow internal tank, the hollow internal tank being fixedly positioned inside of a corresponding six-corner surface tube and along a longitudinal axis of the corresponding six-corner surface tube, and the hollow internal tank being formed to contain at least one of sensitive and volatile materials, the FRP prepreg completely filling an internal space of each six-corner surface tube outside of the hollow internal tank,
• a plurality of elongated filler elements, wherein each of the plurality of elongated filler elements including FRP prepreg molded with a four-corner surface longitudinally along each filler element with a trapezoidal shape in cross-section, the FRP prepreg completely filling an internal space of each elongated filler element,
• said plurality of molded six-corner surface tubes and said plurality of elongated filler elements are arranged into the predetermined shape such that the plurality of molded six-corner surface tubes and filler elements are adjacently attached parallel to each other,
• said plurality of elongated filler elements are positioned to form at least an outer surface of said predetermined shape,
• the plurality of molded six-corner surface tubes and the plurality of elongated filler elements being formed to fixedly contain at least one of sensitive or volatile materials in each of the hollow internal tanks of the plurality of molded six-corner surface tubes, and
• said plurality of honeycomb storage devices are adjacently attached parallel to each other and positioned in a honeycomb structure when viewed in cross-section.
