AIR CARGO CONTAINER

摘要

Composite panel for air cargo containers including a fire resistant, closed cell foam core, a skin attached to at least one surface of the core formed by fire resistant fibers in a matrix resin, wherein the panel will contain an internal fire with temperatures of up to 1500° F. for a period of at least 4 hours.

主权项

1. Composite panel for containers providing resistance to fire emanating from within the interior of the container and comprising:
a foam core made from a fire-resistant, closed cell foam and having a density of between 0.75 lbs/ft3 and 20.0 lbs/ft3 and a substantially uniform thickness of at least 0.1 inch; and a skin attached to each surface of the core, at least one of the skins is a fire resistant skin formed by fire resistant fibers having a melt temperature of least 1200° F. with fire resistant a matrix resin spread throughout the fibers, the resin composition being such that it does not melt, support flame, or completely degrade in the presence of temperatures up to 1500° F.; wherein the composite panel is of such construction as to be able to block an internal fire with temperatures of up to 1500° F. for a period of at least four hours.
