  1. Full-Scale Testing of Intumescent-Coated Aluminum Skin Manchester 737 Accident, 1985

  2. Fuselage Burnthrough Protection Using Intumescent Coating

  3. Fuselage Burnthrough Protection Using Intumescent Coating Advantages Complete and continuous coverage of lower fuselage half, no discontinuities No disruption of present thermal acoustic insulation system design Potential weight savings? Disadvantages Unproven long term performance as exterior coating Performance during accident in which fuselage skin is scraped or damaged?

  4. Proposed Full-Scale Testing of Intumescent-Coated Skin

  5. Full-Scale Test Rig To Evaluate Intumescent-Coated Panels

  6. Full-Scale Test Rig To Evaluate Intumescent-Coated Panels

  7. Full-Scale Test Rig To Evaluate Intumescent-Coated Panels

  8. Intumescent Testing in Laboratory Environment

  9. Intumescent Testing in Laboratory Environment burnthrough test on typical insulation blanket

  10. Intumescent Testing in Laboratory Environment intumescent coated aluminum panel intumescent coating begins expanding

  11. Intumescent Testing in Laboratory Environment burner flame choked

  12. Difficulty Testing Intumescents Using Present Burnthrough Test Rig

  13. Intumescent Testing in Laboratory Environment intumescent coated aluminum panel intumescent coating begins expanding roll burner back

  14. Proposed Testing of Intumescent Coated Aircraft Skin 1. Conduct full-scale proof-of-concept test at FAATC 2. Conduct lab-scale tests using burnthrough apparatus at FAATC 3. Adjust or revise test protocall as necessary
