1 Product Information M723A Chopped Strand Mat For Conformability Product Description M723A is a medium-fine fiber, rapid wetting chopped strand mat and is composed of silane sized multi-length (one to two inch) chopped glass filament bundles that average 16,500 yards/pound (30 tex or g/km). It is bonded together with a small amount of highly soluble powdered polyester binder and is designed to be randomly oriented and multi-resin compatible. This product is produced using Advantex glass fiber. Advantex glass fiber combines the excellent mechanical and electrical properties of traditional E-glasses with the acid resistance of E-CR glasses. TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS (nominal values) weight (g/m 2 ) Loss on ignition (%) VISUAL CHARACTERISTICS OR POSSIBLE DEFECTS Excellent dry handling characteristics for consistent unrolling, part/kit cutting and manipulation Superior wet tensile strength for pre-wetting processes and easier placement and adjustment Exceptional roll density for fewer roll changes and reduced handling Superior mechanical properties and resin compatibility Lloyd s Register, Det Norske Veritas and Germanischer Lloyds certifications

Nominal mat weight ROLL Characteristics Roll width Nominal full roll length Nominal full roll weight (gm/m 2 ) oz/ft 2 cm in m yd kg lb LABELING Identification: Each roll shall display a label with the following information (in both Imperial and SI units where applicable): Product Name Nominal Weight Product Code Roll Width Roll Number Date of Manufacture Time of Manufacture Net Weight Storage The M723A mat should be stored in its original packaging in a dry and cool place. Best conditions are at temperature from 10 to 35 C and humidity between 35 and 85%. If you store the product at lower temperatures, please move the soon to be processed pallets to the production area 24 hours ahead of time; remove part of the protective cover of each roll to prevent condensation. You can stock pallets one on one with a plywood plank in between the two. PACKAGING The mat rolls are packaged to provide adequate protection during shipping and storage as well as minimizing waste for the customer. Each roll is individually enclosed in Cling-Pak wrap, stood vertically, and palletized nine (16) rolls per pallet. The pallet load is banded with tape and Cling-Pak wrapped.

Introduction This document provides a (MSDS) for nonwovens on a voluntary basis according to EDANA recommendations (Guidelines/instructions relating to MSDS for nonwovens 10/GV8/422). The MSDS is a means of transferring essential hazard information (including information on transport, handling, storage and emergency actions) from the supplier of a nonwoven product to the recipient of the product. As nonwovens are generally not hazardous, MSDS for nonwovens is not legally requested but must be considered as information. It is inspired from the EC recommendation for MSDS EC 1907/ Identification of the product and the company 1.1. Identification of the product(s) Coremat R3030 (Coremat Xi) Intended use of the product Core material and print through barrier in FRP-applications Company identification Company/Plant where information on the product safety is available: Name : Lantor BV/Lantor Address : P.O. Box 45, NL-3900 AA Veenendaal, The Netherlands Phone number : +31(0) Fax number : +31(0) Department/person responsible for the product safety: Name : Lantor B.V. Composites Address : P.O. Box 45, NL-3900 AA Veenendaal, The Netherlands Phone number : +31(0) Fax number : +31(0) Hazards identification No hazardous product under normal conditions. Accidental thermal decomposition or melting state can present hazards. 3. Composition / Information on ingredients Identification of the type of nonwoven product: 3.1. Nonwoven Carded web, chemically bonded Nature of the fibre(s) Polyester (PES) 3.3. Web surface treatment - Concentration above 1% Acrylic binder Binder Acrylic binder.

Chemicals (in relevant concentration) that are in the list of dangerous substances. 4. First aid measures 4.1. Inhalation By inhalation of microspheres, move person to fresh air Skin contact No specific measure to be taken Eyes contact Eyes should be flushed out with water Ingestion Unlikely. In case of ingestion, get medical help. 5. Fire fighting measures 5.1. Suitable extinguishing media Water, water/foam, CO Extinguishing-media not to be used Water in case short-circuiting is the cause of the fire Special exposure hazard For flammable and toxic fumes as well as skin contact with molten materials see section Special protective clothing for fire-fighter No special requirement. 6. Accidental release measures Not applicable. 7. Handling and storage Keep Lantor Coremat in the original package. Store in a cool and well ventilated area. The temperature should be above 0 C but must not exceed +30 C. 8. Exposure controls / personal protection General room ventilation is recommended.

Physical and chemical properties Appearance (the colour of the product as supplied): Blue, turning to white when impregnated Odour : Neutral ph Boiling point/boiling range Melting point/melting range : C (PES fibres) Decomposition temperature : 450 C Flash point Flammability : not easily flammable (see section 10) Autoflammability (temperature) : > 450 C Explosive properties Oxidizing properties Vapour pressure Relative density Solubility: - water solubility : insoluble in water - fat solubility Partition coefficient: n.octanol/water 10. Stability and reactivity The material is chemically stable. Under thermal decomposition flammable and toxic fumes can be generated. The generation of cleavage and oxidation products is subject to fire conditions. Non burned residues and contaminated water after fire fighting should be disposed of in compliance with official regulations. Molten material should not be allowed to be in contact with the skin to which it can cause burns. 11. Toxicological information Acute toxity: None Local effect: None Chronic short and long term toxity: None Note: Under decomposition conditions; toxic fumes and contaminated water, see section Ecological information There is no indication that this material is a risk to the environment. This material is water insoluble. 13. Disposal considerations As on hazardous solid waste, nonwovens can be disposed of, depending on local legislation, through recycling, incineration or landfill. 14. Transport information Not classified as hazardous for transport. Keep the material dry during transport. 15. Regulatory information 16.
