Plastic Aluminium Composite Panels Metallic Appearance

Aluminum Composite panel is a type of flat panel that consists of two thin aluminium sheets bonded to a non-aluminium core. ACPs are frequently used for external cladding or facades of buildings, insulation, and signage.[3] If the core material is flammable, usage may be problematic as a building material and some jurisdictions have banned their use. Aluminum sheets can be coated with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), fluoropolymer resins (FEVE), or polyester paint. Aluminum can be painted in any kind of color, and ACPs are produced in a wide range of metallic and non-metallic colors as well as patterns that imitate other materials, such as wood or marble. The core is commonly low-density polyethylene, or a mix of low-density polyethylene and mineral material to exhibit fire retardant properties. ACP is mainly used for external and internal architectural cladding or partitions, false ceilings, signage, machine coverings, container construction, etc. Applications of ACP are not limited to external building cladding, but can also be used in any form of cladding such as partitions, false ceilings, etc. ACP is also widely used within the signage industry as an alternative to heavier, more expensive substrates. These structures made optimal use of ACP through its cost, durability, and efficiency. Its flexibility, low weight, and easy forming and processing allow for innovative design with increased rigidity and durability.

Product Introduction

Aluminum Composite Panel installation guideline Use VHT Tape which has two sides for effective installation. This is because these tapes eliminate the needs of using screws and rivets. They also make a smooth, clean appearance. Ensure 55cm2 of VHB tape/kilogram is be used for static dead load support. Also, factor in the wind Loads if you are going to use these panels externally. Surface coat the metals with paint and primers to alter their service energy. In so doing, you will have done an adhesion and surface preparation. Ensure the tape width is the approximate size to allow transfer of wind load on the composite panel to the building structure. Determine the tape width which is appropriate for perimeter bonded panels. This will ensure that you have the exact width tape for permanent loads-dead load holding. Calculate the amount of possible thermal joint movement due to differences in thermal expansion between the metal frame and the panel. This will ensure that you have the exact tape thickness and provision for movement. Establish an appropriate work area free from dirt, dust, etc. This is because the tape will bond strongly to the surface it contacts. Maintain the temperature of the working place at 15oc. Installation process Prepare the surface properly by ensuring no contaminant at all even fingerprints. Handle the tape at the edges and apply it to the prepared surface aligned with the edge then apply pressure to it to ensure proper surface contact. Install the panel in one weeks’ time. Push the panel on to tape and make sure it is in contact with the tacky tape surface which is exposed. Apply final pressure to all the bond area of the panel. Apply silicone sealant around the panels’ entire perimeter. It acts as weather sealant and protects the VHB tape from cleaning agents which are potentially aggressive.
