Polyester PE Back Coat Service coat Application thickness per coat 5-7 microns (reverse face) Specific gravity 1.14 Roller application Curing process per coat Oven baking, temperature range 224-232 C. Flames retardant details Brief description of manufacturing process Two coats are done on the front aluminium substrate with a total dry film thickness of 25 micron, the test face coat being a KYNAR 500 PVDF coat. The back coil is coated with service coat. The coils are then composited with a special flame retardant grade core composition to produce 4mm thick flame retardant grade aluminium composite panel. The coated aluminium coil is bonded to both faces with continuous co-extrusion manufacturing process Note 1: The sponsor was unwilling to provide this information. Information: 1. The performance relates only to the behaviour of the specimen of the product under the particular conditions of test. They are not intended to be the sole criterion for assessing the potential smoke obscuration or fire hazard of the product in use, nor do they reflect the actual behaviour of the product under real fire conditions. 2. It is the responsibility of the user of the information contained within this document to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use of the product. 3. The performance relates only to the specimens of the product in the form in which they were tested. Each specimen tested to BS 476: Part 6: 1989+A1: 2009 was placed over 12.5mm thick by 20mm wide calcium silicate based spacers positioned around its perimeter and mounted onto a backing board so that a 12.5mm enclosed air gap was provided between the unexposed face of the specimen and the backing board. Each specimen tested to BS 476: Part 7: 1997 was placed over 25mm thick by 20mm wide calcium silicate based spacers positioned around its perimeter and mounted onto a backing board so that a 25mm enclosed air gap was provided between the unexposed face of the specimen and the backing board. 4. The approval relates to on-going production. Board product and/or its immediate packaging shall be identified with the certification mark including the certification number, and the manufacturer s name and the product name or code reference.
