General Plastics LAST-A-FOAM® FR-3804 FST Polyurethane Foam
Categories: Other Engineering Material; Composite Core Material; Polymer; Thermoset; Polyurethane, TS; Thermoset Polyurethane Foam, Unreinforced

Material Notes: Product Description: FR-3800 FST is a halogen-free polyurethane-based foam that is compliant with fire, smoke and toxicity (FST) requirements, Ohio State University (OSU) 65/65 heat release standards for aerospace interior applications and REACH regulation. It is available in a wide range of densities, from 3 to 40 pounds per cubic foot, and sheet thickness of up to 24 inches. Custom sizes and thickness are also available. The FR-3800 FST can be thermoformed, easily machined and bonded. It withstands process temperatures up to 310° Fahrenheit, which provides a larger processing window to manufacture composite parts. This FST performance core series exhibits high strength-to-weight ratio due to its cellular and cross-linked structure. It meets the mechanical property requirements for core and structural FST applications without the high cost associated with alternative materials such as thermoplastic foams and honeycomb. With the FR-3800 FST, design and performance goals are achieved while meeting fire safety requirements.

Features:

  • Passes fire, smoke and toxicity (FST) Requirements
  • Meets OSU 65/65 heat release standards
  • Sheet thickness up to 24 inches
  • Thermoformable into simple curves
  • Shapes easily with common machining methods
  • Bonds well with composite skins
  • Withstands process temperatures up to 310° Fahrenheit
  • Resistant to water absorption
  • Resistant to most chemicals and solvents
  • Will not support fungal growth
  • No edge-closing or filling needed
Applications:
  • First-class seating pods
  • Sandwich core for aircraft interior components: Ceiling panels; Wall panels; Floor ramps; Door panels; Hard points in composite panels; Passenger cabin class dividers
  • Lightweight flyaway parts
  • Edge closeouts
  • Support/shim pieces
