Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2368957A1] Reinforcing element for reinforcing structural components in cavities comprises a carrier (1) made of plastic, which is at least partially coated with a metal (2); and a foamable, thermosetting structural adhesive (3), which is applied on the metal coating of the carrier, or a thermosetting structural adhesive, which is applied on the metal coating of the carrier, and designed as a shape-memory material. An independent claim is also included for reinforcing the structural components in the cavities, comprising: (a) placing the reinforcing element in the cavity of the structural component; (b) heating the thermosetting structural adhesive on the reinforcing element to a temperature above the glass transition temperature of the thermosetting structural adhesive, where the glass transition temperature is a foaming temperature of the foamable, thermosetting structural adhesive, or is a temperature, at which the shape-memory material returns to its original shape; and (c) hardening the thermosetting structural adhesive.
