 Fire Resistant - Thermal Barrier Mineral Foam Composite |
Why do we need it?
A. Foamed plastic is a defined term in all N.A. Building and Fire Codes. It is required to be covered over when used as a "room lining" or within a living space. There is little point in installing decorative panels if they need to be covered over by drywall. This product provides the opportunity to create decorative Thermal Barrier products that do not need to be covered.
Technology offers a new lightweight Thermal Barrier Mineral Foam Composite that is economical and includes low flame spread and smoke developed rating. Fire resistant, medium density rigid polyurethane-based composite for automotive, aerospace and construction applications.
Benefits Summary
The term Thermal Barrier Mineral Foam Composite is used to describe a new class of building materials that offer the advantages of polyurethane foam - with its light weight, low cost and quick setting characteristics - but with the added value of a fire resistant composite. This offers low flammability & thermal resistance properties, which then meet the requirements for an interior installation under the North American Building Codes.
Technology Benefits Description
Makes Fire Resistant light weight composite for use in products such as decorative panels and insulating board stock, pipe insulation, and numerous other application, which passes the ASTM-E119 Fire Resistance Rating for use as an approved 'thermal barrier". This means that the finish does not need to be covered with an approved thermal barrier, such as drywall - so that decor panels, artificial stone, rough sawn timber and a host of other high end interior & exterior products can also be manufactured. May also find application in automotive, trucking, aerospace and rail applications as a fire resistant insulation.
The only fire resistant (as opposed to flame spread rated) insulating and decorative foam in the North American market.
Technology Differentiation and Uniqueness
The only "Fire Resistant" ASTM-E119 (as apposed to flame spread rated ASTM-E84) rated foam composite in the North American market. A paradigm shift in raw light weight materials.
Patents (pending) formulation that permits foamed plastic products to be installed as an interior room lining without the need to cover the foamed plastic with Gyprock, Drywall or another approved Thermal barrier covering.
Development Stage
Technology Verification/Prototype
Development Status Summary
Fire tests for both the ASTM-E84 and the ASTM-E119 have passed both ASTM-E84 - F/S 5 Smoke 350 & ASTM-E119 - Thermal Barrier Class A.
Application and Potential Advantage
1 Construction: Board Stock for light weight partition walls, SIPs, pipe coverings etc.
2 Décor: Create faux stone and fake timber or other light weight products for interior and exterior use, to meet the fire codes, where today these regular rigid polyurethane based products are not acceptable under current fire codes.
3 Manufacturing: Create light weight board stock for use as core materials in moveable partition systems or portable buildings without the need for a heavy sheet of drywall (thermal barrier) to protect the "foamed plastic" which is now the case with regular P/U or EPS foams.
4 Material can be used to create light weight insluating foam cores for Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) and permit other finishes such as 1/16" plywood or even fabric or aluminum skins to be used as the finsihed decorative layer making the panels lighter, cheaper and more durable than those finished with drywall
5 Fire resistant, medium density rigid polyurethane-based composite for automotive, aerospace and construction applications.
