scope:
The material covered by this specification is a polyamide fibrous structure intended for the suppression of explosions in aircraft fuel tanks.
The latter may be integral tanks, rigid or flexible tanks. The material is coloured white to distinguish it from the grey polyester material used for flame and fire suppression in dry bays. (See DTD 5624).
The material is intended for long term use in tanks containing standard aircraft fuels such as Avtur, Avcat and Avtag, at temperatures of up to 110°C, with intermittent peaks of temperature up to 130°C.
