A new clear‑resin, flame‑retardant epoxy prepreg for visually critical components requiring certified fire performance.
Combining outstanding cosmetic clarity with rigorous flame‑retardant capability, MTC521FR sets a new standard for high‑end exposed‑carbon applications in automotive, aircraft interiors and marine.
Building on SHD’s proven expertise in cosmetic-grade prepregs, the system has been developed by engineering an all-new resin formulation specifically tuned for visual clarity and flame performance, supported by extensive internal testing. It is a clear, fully transparent material that delivers consistent laminate quality and meets globally recognised fire-safety standards. The material achieves UL94 V1 classification and passes CS/FAR 25.853 12-second and 60-second vertical burn tests, confirming its suitability for safety-critical cosmetic interior structures.
