PTFE woven fabric adds flame resistance.Incorporating a new woven fabric of PTFE PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene. into composite laminates Composite laminates Assemblages of layers of fibrous composite materials (see illustration) which can be tailored to provide a wide range of engineering properties, including inplane stiffness, bending stiffness, strength, and coefficients of thermal expansion. is said to provide an effective barrier against flame and smoke generation. Web 100-40G from Daikin America, Orangeburg, N.Y., is believed to be the only product of its type. On its own, it is rated UL 94V-0, and composites made with it reportedly can easily pass E162, E662, and BSS See 802.11. BSS - Block Started by Symbol 7239 flame tests flame test, test used in the identification of certain metals. It is based on the observation that light emitted by any element gives a unique spectrum when passed through a spectroscope. . Also noteworthy is that the PTFE fabric has no negative effect on composite physical properties, Daikin claims. Tel: (800) 365-9570 * PTDirect: 964JH |
