 Product Briefing Outline: George Fischer has announced the
availability of its new Factory Mutual (FM) 4910 PVDF (polyvinylidene
fluoride) high purity sheet material, which meets the requirements of
FM Clean Room Materials Flammability Test Protocol, Class 4910.
Problem: FM 4910 is the fire retardant property established by
Factory Mutual Research, an affiliate of FM Global, a worldwide
industrial insurance organization. With Factory Mutual listing now
required by most insurance companies, the new PVDF Sheet provides a
timely answer for companies seeking compliance. Materials meeting FM
guidelines offset the potential for contamination by smoke and
corrosive byproducts associated with fire, by providing products
inherently safe upon installation. FM approved materials also offer
significant benefits in terms of reduced fire risks and elimination of
the need for costly fire suppression systems.
Solution: Manufactured from Kynar 740 resin, the new sheet
features a double-masked surface for high quality. Other performance
characteristics include fully traceable and verifiable resin, excellent
chemical resistance, UV stability, and high quality machining and
welding.
Applications: Excellent colour consistency and dimensional
tolerances exceed other products currently available, providing a new
solution for semiconductor OEMs.
Platform: Available in sizes 4-foot x 8-foot with thicknesses
ranging from 1/8-inch through 1-inch, the new sheet features a
tolerance consistency per ASTM D6713-01 and combustibility approvals by
FM 4910, UL2360 and ASTM E84.
Availability: July 2004 onwards.
