High Pressure Laminate (HPL)
Description
This experiment is on a system consisting of a High Pressure Laminate (HPL) cladding panel and a Water-cooled steel plate insulation panel, separated with a cavity of 50 mm width. It is the first repetition of this system configuration.
Experiment Notes
The HPL panel was seen to continue smouldering after the experiment was terminated, requiring extinguishment
