General Information
High impact, thermoplastic sheet specifically formulated to meet low heat release requirements and improve passenger safety.
KYDEX® 6565HI was designed to provide material deformation when used in components subjected to the HIC test (Head Injury Criterion) — increasing passenger safety. It meets flammability and smoke development requirements outlined in Federal Aviation Regulations 25.853 paragraphs (a) and (d).
Finish:
Solid
Suggested Applications
Seat parts
Seatback shells
Tray tables
Monitor shrouds
Bulkhead laminates
Features
Improved impact properties over traditional thermoplastics for HIC compliance seating requirements
Reduce cost of compliance by decreasing the total number of expensive and time consuming 16g tests required.
Increase design freedom to create more complex seat geometries.
Decrease weight by eliminating the need for heavy reinforcements
or thick gauges.
Meets the stringent requirements of FAR 25.853 paragraph (d) in all thicknesses and colours
Excellent formability and fabrication characteristics
