Epoxy Passes Stringent Airbus Standards

Specifically designed for avionic/aviation applications, Master Bond EP93FRHT  readily passes the stringent Airbus specifications for vertical burn test, smoke emission and toxic gas emission as listed under ABD 0031, Issue F. This video explains the testing procedures and how well this two part, non-halogenated system performed. EP93FRHT can be used for bonding, sealing and potting applications involving interior panels, floor and door assemblies, as well as frame lining for a variety of aircraft.

    00:00:01 [Music] [Music] master bond EP 93 F RHD non-halogenated epoxy was developed for aircraft applications or stringent requirements for flame retardancy smoke emission and toxicity levels have to be met this material is passed rigorous Airbus testing including the vertical ignition test or castings of EP

    00:00:32 93 fr HD for exposed to flamed for 12 seconds the results show that it took under one second to extinguish the flame well under the allotted 15 seconds permitted by the test the second part of this test measures how far the flame is spread again EP 93 f rh d depicts a burned length of just over seven millimetres once again well under the maximum allowed of 203 millimetres the

    00:01:02 next Airbus test is the optical density of smoke generated by solid materials in this test the epoxy castings are exposed to a flame for 240 seconds after which a successful result would show that the smoke being generated is below the threshold of 200 specific optical density master bond EP 93 f rht passes with flying colours with a specific optical density of 138 last we have the

    00:01:33 toxic gas analysis of the smoke that was generated at the end of the smoke test four minutes after initiation the specimens are tested for toxicity to certain reactive gases like carbon monoxide hydrogen chloride nitric oxides sulfur dioxide hydrogen cyanide and hydrogen fluoride you can see the acceptance criteria for toxicity specified by the Airbus test and the

    00:01:59 values of the master bond epoxy which fell far below each master bond EP 93 fr HD two component epoxy that can be used as an adhesive sealant and potting system it is ideal for use in aircraft interior applications to learn more about this specialty products contact us today
