Flooring, Wall Finishing and Roofing Sectional Committee, CED 05

FOREWORD
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Flooring,
Wall Finishing and Roofing Sectional Committee had been approved by the Civil Engineering Division Council.
Aluminium composite panel (ACP) consists of three main layers, that is top and bottom coated aluminium sheet
and in between a core material made either of low-density polyethylene (LDPE) or mineral based material. The
core is connected to top and bottom coated aluminium sheet by adhesive films.
ACP may be intended for external applications such as cladding façades, curtain walls, soffits, canopy and
high masts; those intended for internal use, such as partitions, ceilings, column encasement; those for use in
transportation related applications like railway coach furnishings; and fire-retardant ACP with a wide range of
properties appropriate to the type of application. These panels may have either smooth or textured surface.
This standard covers the physical, mechanical, coating and fire-retardant properties for flat aluminium composite
panel (ACP). Other requirements related to acoustic and thermal properties have been also given, for which ACP
shall comply to the same on demand of the purchaser.
The composition of the Committee responsible for the in the formulation of this standard is given in Annex D.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with the final value,
observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis shall be rounded off in accordance with
IS 2 : 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values ( revised )’. The number of significant places retained in the
rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

railway coach furnishing; and fire-retardant ACP with
a wide range of properties appropriate to the type of
application.
2 REFERENCE
The Indian standards given in Annex A contain provisions
which through reference in this text, constitute provisions
of this standard. At the time of publication, the editions
indicated were valid. All standards are subject to revision,
and parties to agreements based on this standard are

3 TERMINOLOGY
For the purpose of this standard, the following definitions
shall apply.
3.1 Aluminium Composite Panel (ACP)/Aluminium
Composite Material (ACM) — A flat panel consisting
of three main layers, that is top and bottom coated
aluminium sheet and in between a core material made
either of low density polyethylene (LDPE) or mineral

with top and bottom adhesive film to coated layers of
aluminium sheets of required thickness. The core
shall be of LDPE or a mix of LDPE and high density
polyethylene (HDPE).
3.4 Mineral Core ACP — An ACP consisting of
homogeneous mixture of inorganic content either
magnesium hydroxide or aluminium trihydrate with
LDPE and admixtures to form the core, laminated and
