flame-retardant PE Plastazote®MP 15 FR

Plastazote®MP 15 FR, the package insulation material with flame-retardant properties.

The MP 15 cross-linked PE-foam is well suited for protective packages or insulations of all kinds. The foam material is highly non-combustible thanks to its flame-retardant properties. Machining of the material, such as cutting or milling, is relatively easy. We offer the PE foam in standard sheets of different thicknesses or in custom dimensions on request.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

The DIN 5510-2 standard defines fire protection in rail vehicles. For the classification of the burning behaviour and the secondary fire phenomena (smoke formation, dripping behaviour) of materials and components, flammability, smoke development and dripability classes are formed and toxicity indices in the form of permissible exposure periods were determined. These classes (e.g. S4,SR2,ST2) are used to determine the flammability and fire hazard requirements for the products listed in components and materials incorporated in vehicles.

The compression hardness or also called compression resistance is the pressure required to compress a foam. At a compression hardness of 60, 6.6 kPa (kiloPascal) is required to compress the foam to 40%. The compression hardness of a foam is its strength.

The density is the weight of the foam in kg/m? (kilogram per cubic meter). The weight or density of the foam is also an indicator of quality, the higher the density, the more long-lasting the quality. However, the density has nothing to do with the perceived degree of hardness. As a rule, lighter foams are cheaper because less material is needed.

The thermal conductivity is decisive for the thermal insulation properties of an insulation material. The thermal insulation property indicates which thermal energy (W) flows through a component per meter (m) at a temperature difference of 1 Kelvin. The unit of measurement is W/mK and is abbreviated as small lambda (?). The basic rule is that the smaller this value, the better the thermal insulation property of the insulating material. Examples: PUR foam 0.037 / polyester fibre mats Vibra?fibre 0.037 / melamine foam Basotect? 0.033

According to your specifications, we can produce almost all geometries on our wide range of processing options such as punching, water jet cutting, contour cutting, shape cutting or cutting plotter. Which process is best suited for the desired foam cutting depends on the foam used as well as the required quality and quantity.

Plastazote foams do not absorb moisture as they all have closed cells.

The durability of PE Plastazote foam is virtually limitless. In most applications, the foams are used for many decades with consistent quality. In aggressive chemical environments, or in intense and continuous exposure to sunlight, the life of PE Plastazote can be shortened.

All Plastazote foams are compliant with the requirements of European Directives 2000/53 / EC (ELV), 2003/11 / EC and 2002/96 / EC (WEEE).

The Plastazote product range includes Plastazote high density products ranging from 115 kg/m3 to 70 kg/m3 Plastazote products with medium density between 70 kg/m3 and 33 kg/m3 Plastazote low density products between 33 kg/m3 and 15 kg/m3 Plastazote? LD15 ultra low density foam has a density of 15 kg/m3 and is the lowest density cross-linked polyethylene foam in the world".

PE cannot be easily coated or glued. There are still various possibilities to produce PE foams (Ethafoam, Vibracell, Plastazote) to a carrier or to itself. -products can be bonded to each other with double-sided adhesive foil. -Hot glue can be used to fix individual parts. This type of gluing is intended more as an assembly aid than for a permanent connection. -Another possibility is to apply a spray adhesive on both sides of the parts - let it flash off well Join the parts and press them together. -The safest connection of two PE parts is achieved by hot air or mirror welding. What does not work and why: -Water-based adhesives/dispersion adhesives cannot be used, because they are not airtight Do not allow material to dry out.

In Switzerland, PE or PUR foams cannot be recycled. They are disposed of with household waste and are "thermally recycled" in the incineration plant. This material is welcome in the incineration plant because it has a high calorific value and burns very cleanly.

The foam standard boards are delivered as untrimmed raw boards. The ordered useful dimensions are guaranteed, protruding material (foam, fleece, SK-foil ecc.) is but possible."

Plastazote sheets and PE sheets in general can be laminated / welded up to a thickness of 300mm.
