Product catalog summary
Product Name: ALPOLIC® Exotic Series Titanium Composite Material Panels (TCM) and Stainless Steel Composite Material Panels (SCM).
Manufacturer: Mitsubishi Plastics Composites America, Inc., located in Chesapeake, VA.
Product Description: ALPOLIC® TCM and SCM panels are used for interior and exterior wall cladding in commercial and institutional applications. They offer design flexibility and are composed of a polyethylene core with noncombustible mineral filling, sandwiched between titanium or stainless steel skins.
Sizes and Finishes: Both TCM and SCM panels are 4 mm thick, with standard widths of 1000 mm and lengths less than 7200 mm. TCM panels have a titanium dull finish, while SCM panels offer polished, dull, and hairline stainless steel finishes.
Technical Data: Panels conform to various ASTM standards for flexural properties, shear strength, tension testing, and fire performance. They pass ASTM E84 for flame spread and smoke development.
Installation: Panels can be attached using conventional methods like rivets, bolts, or screws. Careful handling is required to prevent damage to the finish.
Availability & Cost: Available worldwide through Mitsubishi's regional offices. Pricing varies based on project size and panel specifications.
Warranty: Contact the manufacturer for warranty details on panels and finishes.
Maintenance: Follow manufacturer guidelines to prevent corrosion and ensure proper cleaning. Use stainless steel fasteners to avoid galvanic corrosion.
Technical Services: ALPOLIC provides technical assistance for design and specification needs.
Physical Properties: TCM panels weigh 9.3 kg/m2 and SCM panels weigh 10.2 kg/m2. Both have a thermal expansion of 0.52 mm/m/50°C and various tensile and flexural properties as detailed in Table 1.
