SEKISUI SPI KYDEX® 5555 MB Acrylic/PVC thermoplastic sheet
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic; Acrylic (PMMA); Vinyl (PVC)

Material Notes: KYDEX® 5555 is specifically formulated to meet the safety needs of the aviation industry. Antimicrobial protection is built-in to continuously fight the growth of microbes

KYDEX® 5555 is a proprietary, high performance acrylic/PVC thermoplastic sheet that meets all fire retardancy requirements set forth in Federal Aviation Regulations 25.853 paragraphs (a) and (d) (old (c)) including low heat release in the OSU HR test. KYDEX® 5555 exceeds the heat release requirement to a level of 55/55. Its excellent properties make it the ideal material to form two-and-three-dimensional aircraft components

Suggested Application:

  • Seat parts
  • Armrests
  • Bulkhead laminates
  • Window shades
  • Life vest shrouds
  • Molding strips
  • Passenger service units
  • Tray tables
  • Monitor shrouds
  • Kick panels
Features:
  • Meets the stringent requirements of the FAR 25.853 paragraph (d) (replaces para.c), in all thicknesses and colors
  • Good formability and extensibility
  • Easy to work with once formed
  • Stronger cleaning agents can be used without discoloration or damage to surface material
  • More resistance to a wider range of concentrated chemicals
  • Antimicrobial protection inhibits the growth of bacteria that can cause stains, odors and product deterioration
  • Antimicrobial protection is built-in to the sheet so it won’t wash or wear away and lasts for the lifetime of the product
  • Antimicrobial protection keeps the surface cleaner between cleanings
